We help Vermonters find Direct Care Workers

The RewardingWork.org registry provides the only comprehensive and current list of people in Vermont who are ready to provide direct care in your home. This is a free service for everyone in Vermont who needs support to help them live independently.

You can get names, telephone numbers, and availability of Direct Care Workers for full- or part-time work, and learn if they can work days, evenings, or weekends.

Here's how it works:

1. Contact your local provider agency to get an access code, which will allow you to have a free long-term subscription. Click here for provider agencies in your region.
2. After you receive your access code, you need to establish an account by clicking here. Enter the code you received through the mail or from your provider agency on the Access Code line. You will use the access code only one time.
3. Then you may search the list of available direct care providers.
4. After you find one or more people who meet your specific needs, you contact them by phone or email to arrange an interview..
5. When you find someone who meets your needs and who wants to work for you, you hire that person. Click here for hiring tips. You may need additional assistance identifying, interviewing, conducting reference and national background checks, or becoming the employer of record. Click here for more information.

(Note: State funded programs have their own procedures for hiring a worker. If you have questions, please contact the agency that is assisting you.)

Although this service is a subscription service, there is no fee for residents of Vermont. After you register, you get unlimited access to all the names of available care providers for 12 months. You may re-register at no charge for an additional 12-months for as long as you have the need.

Job candidates in the Rewarding Work database have NOT been screened in any way and their backgrounds have NOT been checked. That is your responsibility as an employer.

You may need additional assistance identifying, interviewing, conducting reference and national background checks or becoming the employer of record. Click here for more information.

If you represent an agency in Vermont that provides services for elders and people with disabilities, you may apply for a free access code. Click here for more information or call RewardingWork.org toll-free at 866-212 WORK (9675). E-mail info@RewardingWork.org
