Personal Care Assistant

Wareham MA

Description

I am looking for physically strong non-smoking young women to assist me with all aspects of personal care and daily living one to two 24 hour shifts weekdays or weekends. Each shift starts at 9 AM and ends 9 AM the next day. For example, you come in at 9 AM say on a Friday, help me throughout the day, help me get to bed at night (I am a bit of a night person) then you sleep in the guest room and wake up when I need assistance during the night. You do not have to stay awake overnight but have to be a light sleeper to hear a call button and respond accordingly. 9 AM the next morning is the end of your shift. You would do a set day or two per week. There are many opportunities to work extra shifts if I need to fill in or wish to travel. I'm an active married woman. I need assistance with all aspects of my personal care, cooking, household chores, etc. I also need someone who can drive me in my van. I use a power wheelchair and numerous home health gadgets. I am looking for responsible, organized, careful, and meticulous people who respect my home and privacy. I’m at extremely high risk because of my disability so I need to make sure the people working for me do not expose me to COVID-19. My husband and I are both vaccinated. You would be working in a very safe environment. I am not looking for a companion - to do this job well you must be able to cheerfully physically assist me and at the same time give me the privacy and space I need to function normally. I need you to, in a way, let me borrow your hands to help me do things my own way. I require the same privacy as any other married does. Please include your phone number in your response.
