In Home Caregiver

IMMEDIATE NEED FOR 1 PART-TIME IN-HOME CAREGIVER. FOUR PAID TRAINING DAYS.

*PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE AD.*

Seeking 1 part-time morning caregiver with experience working with a person with quadriplegia or that is willing to learn.

The caregiver position covers Wednesday through Saturday mornings at this time.

Currently, my primary caregiver is on maternity leave for a couple of months.

My secondary caregiver is leaving on October 10th after over three years. We need to cover those days.

Starting time is 9:00 am (flexible to between 7:30 and 9). Morning care lasts about 3.5-4 hours on bowel care/shower days (which happens every other day). Other days, the morning care takes about 1.5-2.5 hours.

Care in the morning would require assisting me with dressing, showering, toileting/bowel care program, wound care. Knowledge of standing pivot transfers is important to transfer me into my shower chair but training is provided if needed.

I would like to work with someone looking for a long-term part-time position so I can have someone that is dependable. My previous caregivers have worked for me from 4 years to 25 years. My current caregivers have been here for over three years.

My home is located about 3 miles from Clackamas Community College and there is no bus route within 4 miles.

PAYS $25/HOUR.

If you’re interested, contact Jerry Ryan at 503-348-6177. Feel free to leave a message. Please do not apply unless you actually want the job. Recently, I've had three applicants accept the job and then no-show on their first day. That misrepresentation took up three weeks of other potential interviews and training time.

Pay: $25.00 per hour
