Caregiver Jobs in Redlands, CA

Redlands does not look like its East Valley neighbors on paper. Its median household income of $105,041 (ACS 2020–2024) is above both the county figure and the California figure, and 14.9% of residents are 65 or older, compared with 12.6% countywide. A larger share of households can afford private hours beyond what IHSS authorizes, and more of them have a parent in their eighties: about 1,600 Redlands residents are 85 or older. The postings above are sorted by distance, so a family a few blocks from the University of Redlands and one across the line in Loma Linda can both reach you.

Medical care shapes a lot of the work. Redlands Community Hospital on Terracina Boulevard is in the city, and the neighboring city of Loma Linda holds Loma Linda University Medical Center on Anderson Street, the southern end of the sbX Green Line. Families leaving either hospital often need someone for the first weeks at home, for rides to follow-up visits, and for medication reminders. On your profile, note which of those tasks you have handled, whether you have a car, and whether you commute by the Arrow train: it stops at Redlands-University, Redlands-Downtown and Redlands-Esri on its nine-mile run from downtown San Bernardino.

Redlands caregivers use the same county systems as everyone in San Bernardino County. No license exists for non-medical work a Redlands family pays you for directly; state Home Care Aide registration ($35, valid two years) is a choice for independents and a requirement once a licensed agency puts you on its payroll. If a Redlands client receives IHSS, your enrollment runs through San Bernardino's Public Authority office, (866) 985-6322, and covers a county orientation session, two state forms (SOC 426, SOC 846) and DOJ fingerprinting. Hospital and nursing-facility jobs at Redlands Community or in Loma Linda call for a CDPH-certified nursing assistant. Call (877) 565-2020 if you suspect an older or dependent adult is being abused.
