Clinical Opportunity: CareYaya

CareYaya, is a UNC-backed healthcare startup that's expanding to Atlanta in partnership with UNCW Center for Innovation & Entrepreneurship. We help students find valuable Direct Patient Care experiences by matching them with elderly patients in the community, many of whom are suffering from Alzhimers and dementia. 

We would appreciate it if you could send this opportunity to the pre-health and pre-nursing students whom you advise. For more background, CareYaya is backed by leading organizations like UNC/Innovate Carolina, Duke Health/DukeWELL, Blue Cross Blue Shield of NC, and Wake Forest Baptist Health.
We're growing rapidly and are looking for Emory students to join as Patient Care Assistants. Benefits Include:
- Direct patient care hours
- No certifications required
- Pay of $17-$20/hour
- Flexible work hours: set your own schedule (on-demand like Uber or Doordash)
- Meaningful work experiences and 1x1 care helping elders in the community and advancing health equity
- Experiences that make great essays for grad school applications
- Affiliated with top medical systems (Duke Health, UNC Health, Wake Forest Baptist Health)
- Top Caregivers get letters of recommendation from physicians for Med/PA/Nursing/Grad Schools.
