Interpersonal and career assessments play a crucial role in the Independent Refuge program as they help ensure successful and fulfilling placements for refugees as non-clinical senior caregivers. We understand that each individual has unique skills, strengths, and preferences when it comes to their career path.
At Independent Refuge, we utilize a comprehensive career assessment process that consists of three main components: personality testing, career assessment, and detail assessment.
The personality test aims to match refugees with seniors based on compatible personalities. By understanding your individual traits and characteristics, we can determine which home care setting will be most suitable for you. This matching process helps establish a strong foundation for long-term compatibility and companionship between the caregiver and the elderly person they will assist.
The career assessment enables us to evaluate your comfort level with the job requirements associated with being a non-clinical senior caregiver. Factors such as communication skills, empathy towards others’ needs, adaptability to different environments or routines, and compassion for those who require assistance are considered during this evaluation. It ensures that you are suited for this type of work and can contribute meaningfully to improving the lives of elderly individuals.
The detail assessment focuses on determining if you possess strong attention-to-detail capabilities required for assisting seniors with their daily living needs accurately and effectively. It allows us to identify if you have skills in organizing tasks efficiently while maintaining accuracy throughout your caregiving duties.
By conducting these thorough assessments during the application process, Independent Refuge ensures an optimal match between seniors and refugees seeking safety and independence opportunities.
At Independent Refuge, we strongly believe that every individual should have the opportunity to thrive in a career that aligns with their strengths and passions. Our career assessment process empowers refugees by placing them in rewarding positions where they can contribute meaningfully to society while building a stable future for themselves and those they care for.
