So You Want to be a Super-Powered Caregiver? IHSS and the Second Job Shuffle
Ever dreamed of being a superhero? Well, strap on your cape (or comfy clothes, whichever works) because as an IHSS provider in California, you're basically a real-life wonder woman/man. You conquer chores, slay dragons of dust bunnies, and become the ultimate companion for those who need a hand. But hey, even superheroes need a side hustle, right?
The question on everyone's mind: Can you, the mighty IHSS provider, hold down another job in California?
The answer, my friend, is a resounding YES! You can be a laundry-folding, meal-prepping, errand-running extraordinaire by day, and a... well, whatever your other job title might be, by night! But hold on there, there's a twist to this story, like a superhero origin tale with a slightly less dramatic soundtrack.
Tip: Train your eye to catch repeated ideas.
The Not-So-Secret Limits of Superhumanism (aka Work Hours)
Even superheroes have to sleep (shocking, I know). California keeps things fair by placing a maximum limit of 66 hours you can work across all your jobs in a week. That means while you can be a whirlwind of awesome, you can't accidentally turn into the Tasmanian Devil and become a scheduling nightmare.
Tip: Slow down when you hit important details.
There's also a monthly cap on IHSS hours specifically, at a cool 283 hours. Remember, your recipient needs you fresh and focused, not a sleep-deprived zombie (though wrangling some zombies might be a fun addition to the IHSS service list, just sayin').

Becoming a Master of the Schedule Shuffle
QuickTip: Absorb ideas one at a time.
So how do you become a scheduling maestro and juggle IHSS with another job like a pro? Here's your cheat sheet:
- Talk it Out: Be upfront with both your IHSS recipient and your other employer about your hours and availability. Communication is key to keeping everyone happy (and fed, in the case of your recipient).
- Embrace the Calendar: Color-coding is your friend! Plot out your IHSS shifts and your other work hours to avoid any scheduling clashes that could leave your recipient, or your boss, hanging.
- Time Management Techniques: Become a master of to-do lists and prioritize tasks like a champ. Remember, superheroes are all about efficiency!
Tip: Summarize the post in one sentence.
