Description

Caregiver needed for disabled adult woman. She lives on her own and needs help to remain independent. She's in a wheelchair, but she can stand and pivot with a spotter close by. Responsibilities include light housekeeping, meal preparation, laundry, medication management, help with personal care, and general companionship. She loves to talk, write, watch TV, listen to music, go for rides, or just sit in the lovely back yard (weather permitting). We have coverage from 6 am until 9 pm and at this time we need three shifts from2pm - 9 pm covered. There is some flexibly in the days and hours, but we need at least one weekend day. Our priority is to find the right person and we'll make the schedule work. We have a great team, but one of our caregivers recently retired so we need one more person. Multiple chemical sensitivity is a factor so we have to keep a scent free home; you must be willing to use unscented products.
