O’Connell Care at Home to Host Open House, Job Fair on Oct. 25

HOLYOKE — O’Connell Care at Home, a home healthcare provider with offices in Holyoke and South Deerfield, announced it will host an open house and job fair on Saturday, Oct. 25 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Holyoke office, located at 14 Bobala Road, Suite 1B.

This job fair comes on the heels of the company’s recent grand opening of a second office in South Deerfield. O’Connell Care at Home is experiencing rapid growth in Hampden, Hampshire, and Franklin counties. “We are looking for passionate, experienced caregivers to give quality care to our growing client population,” said Human Resource Manager Michelle Kupec.

O’Connell Care at Home is currently seeking candidates to fill the positions of certified nursing assistants, certified home-health aides, personal-care assistants, licensed practical nurses, and registered nurses. “We conduct on-the-spot interviews at our open houses,” said company founder and President Fran O’Connell, “and we are also willing to train the right candidate to have them certified.”

Interested candidates are welcome for walk-in appointments and should bring a résumé along with personal and professional references. O’Connell said employees enjoy convenient work schedules, and special attention is provided to match the right home-health aide and customer. There is an increased need for night and weekend availability; however, weekday positions are also available.
