If you’re a compassionate, reliable caregiver who wants to work with a supportive, responsive team, Curesa Health may be the perfect fit. We’re a locally owned home care agency in Santa Cruz County, and we believe caregivers deserve the same level of respect, kindness, and communication that we give our clients and families. When you join our team, you’re joining a company that is hands-on, organized, and genuinely invested in helping you succeed.

Why Work with Curesa Health

Caregivers are the heart of everything we do. We built Curesa Health to be the kind of agency caregivers actually want to work for — supportive, transparent, and easy to communicate with.

Here’s what makes working with us different:

Leadership

A leadership team that actually knows you

Curesa Health is run by Lauren, an RN with years of clinical experience, and her husband James, an operations-focused business owner known for building strong systems and treating people well. We’re not absentee owners — we live in Santa Cruz, we’re involved daily, and we’re always just a call or text away.

Respect

A respectful, organized workplace

We value clear communication, consistent scheduling, fair expectations, and treating caregivers like professionals. You’ll have the structure you need to do your best work.

Pay

Competitive pay and flexibility

We offer competitive hourly rates, flexible scheduling, and opportunities for consistent weekly hours. Whether you want part-time shifts or longer blocks of care, we strive to match you with schedules that support your lifestyle.

Mission

A mission you can feel proud of

You’ll be making a real difference in the lives of seniors and families in our community — helping them stay safe, supported, and independent at home.

Each service can be combined or customized to meet your loved one’s needs. If you’re unsure where to start, our How It Works page explains our process step-by-step.
