🏆 Who PimaCare at Home Is
PimaCare at Home has been sending caregivers into Tucson living rooms since 2010. It's a subsidiary of the nonprofit Pima Council on Aging, based on Country Club Road in midtown, and it serves clients across Pima County, from the city to Marana, Sahuarita, Green Valley and out to Ajo. Care is paid through the Arizona Long Term Care System, private pay or long-term care insurance.
The agency hires on a steady rhythm. We covered its September 28 event at the same office, and the November 16 date is a fresh chance for anyone who missed it.
💼 What a Direct Care Worker Does
A direct care worker is the person who shows up so someone else can keep living at home. According to the event flyer, the job covers:
- Personal care, such as help with bathing, dressing and grooming
- Light housekeeping to keep the home safe and livable
- Meal assistance, from preparing food to helping a client eat
- Shopping and errands
- Companion care, which often matters as much as the chores
- Accompaniment to appointments and outings
The flyer also promises flexible hours and locations. In practice that means visits at clients' homes around the county, so a reliable way to get between them helps. Ask at the event how schedules and travel work.
💰 Pay, Training and the 2027 Wage Change
The flyer for this event lists a starting rate of $16.00 an hour for the Direct Care Worker job. That matches what PimaCare posted for its earlier 2026 events. The agency's careers page promises in-person training and 24-hour support, which is what makes a no-experience hire workable in this field.
One thing to watch: minimum wage rises on January 1. Arizona's floor goes from $15.15 to $15.65, and inside Tucson city limits it goes to $16, as our 2027 minimum wage breakdown explains. Because caregivers work in clients' homes, the floor for each shift depends on where that home sits, not where the office is. A visit in midtown and a visit in Oro Valley can fall under different rules.
✅ How to Make the Most of It
- Register first. Use the One-Stop sign-up form so the office knows you're coming.
- Bring the basics. A photo ID, a printed resume if you have one, and a list of the days and hours you can work.
- Talk about real care you've given. No paid experience is required, but helping a grandparent, a neighbor or a family member with a disability counts. Say so.
- Ask about screening. Home care agencies typically run background checks before you're placed with a client. Ask what PimaCare requires and how long onboarding takes.
- Can't make it? Apply through the PimaCare at Home careers page or call (520) 305-3445.
