Caregiver Support
Become a Caregiver With The Grand Company
Get Paid to Care for Someone You Love
If you already live with and provide daily support to a family member or loved one, you may be eligible to become their paid caregiver. The Grand Company helps qualified caregivers turn the important work they already perform into recognized, structured, and compensated employment.
Our Paid Live-In Caregiver Program helps individuals receive consistent support from someone they know and trust while allowing caregivers to earn income, receive training, and access ongoing professional support.
What Is a Paid Live-In Caregiver?
A paid live-in caregiver resides in the same home as the person receiving services and is approved to provide specific supports identified in that person’s authorized service plan.
Depending on the individual’s needs and program authorization, services may include:
- Personal care and hygiene assistance
- Dressing and grooming
- Meal planning and preparation
- Light housekeeping and laundry
- Mobility and transfer assistance
- Medication reminders
- Health-maintenance activities, when authorized
- Safety monitoring and support
- Assistance with daily routines
- Grocery shopping and essential errands
- Community activities and appointments
- Communication and self-advocacy support
- Independent living skills
- Documentation of authorized services
Only approved services and compensable working time may be paid. Simply living in the same home does not mean every hour is considered working time.
Who May Qualify?
A paid live-in caregiver may be a:
- Parent
- Spouse or partner
- Adult child
- Sibling
- Extended family member
- Trusted friend
- Other qualified person who lives with the individual
Eligibility depends on the individual’s program, assessed needs, approved services, living arrangement, and applicable rules. Some legally responsible family members may be eligible under certain programs, while additional limitations or approvals may apply.

How the Process Works
1. Contact The Grand Company
Tell us about the person receiving care, the support currently being provided, and the caregiver’s living arrangement.

The prospective caregiver completes the required employment documents, screenings, background checks, and other qualification requirements.
4. Complete Training and Onboarding
Approved caregivers receive information about their responsibilities, documentation, timekeeping, client rights, confidentiality, health and safety, and service-plan requirements.
5. Begin Providing Authorized Services
Once all approvals and onboarding requirements are complete, the caregiver may begin documenting and receiving payment for authorized services.
