Description

Hello! We are seeking a caregiver for 6hrs per day, 5 days per week, at a rate that will be comfortably higher than what an agency would pay. I am familiar with what the agencies pay, and what the issues are there for workers. This is a much better gig, and we are pro worker. We are seeking the worker who is seeking us. MANDATORY (these must *all* be true of you, to be eligible): - trustworthy, high integrity - CNA licensed - native Mandarin language speaker (Cantonese is considered, but Mandarin is preferred) - available to work 10:30am-4:30pm - able to drive your own safe, clean car, legally and insured, for errands and shopping - health insurance of your own - no phones during work hours, but laptop/tablet will likely be OK (we may even be able to provide one) For the right person, this is an exceptionally good and potentially easy gig, with a lot of perks. It is primarily a babysitting and driving job, so it is potentially great for a student or someone working toward a degree or in professional training, while also having caregiving experience and a CNA license. The CNA license is mandatory, no exceptions. This is not an under-the-table job. Our mom has Alzheimer's but does *not* need help bathing, toileting, dressing or eating her own meals. She *does* need help with operating the TV (she cannot figure out new remotes), preparing some of her meals, being safe when coming and going, using appliances, etc., modest cleaning. The primary part of the job is driving and accompanying her while shopping, or at the library, with some normal other caregiving duties, so that she is able to get around, be active, get home safely (and not leave home unsafely). It is really a babysitting job, but involved will be having some meals with her, for which (as a general rule) you will not have to pay. A lot of it will be sitting and accompanying. Please write via the CL system, and tell something about yourself if this sounds like it could be a good fit. If you work in the caregiving industry and are not a fit (perhaps because of language requirement), please feel welcome to get in touch if you know someone else who would fit. If you connect us to the right caregiver, we would want to show our appreciation with an appropriate reward if that person proves to be right for the job. Thank you!

Training will start on: -Saturday 10/4 at 8 AM The substitute caregiver is needed to care for a 60 year-old paralyzed man, while his regular caregiver is on vacation. IMPORTANT: Please note that although this job is labeled as "Full-Time" – if you're an experienced caregiver, then there will be a LOT of downtime. However, you would need to assist the patient whenever needed. If you meet the requirements and want to be considered for the position, please respond with a brief description of your work experience (and resume if available). HIRING REQUIREMENTS: -Short phone interview -Short in-person interview and talk about the duties of the job. At this time, you'll be shown the patient's condo with your own room. OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION: Patient is a 195 pound, 6 foot tall paralyzed male. The substitute caregiver must be strong enough to move the patient from one side of the bed to the other, in order to prevent pressure sores on the patient's skin. I've had many caregivers who were only a fraction of my weight, and they were able to easily move me from one side of the bed to the other – as long as they used correct nursing methods. During the day, the patient needs to be turned approximately 2-4 times. Overnight, the patient usually sleeps all night with no rotations. Patient has a quiet and easy-going personality. RESPONSIBILITIES: Provide full-time, live-in caregiving. A Registered Nurse (RN) will visit 3 times per week to manage medications and some toileting. The caregiver must be strong enough and able to turn the patient in bed in order to to prevent the patient from getting pressure sores. The patient has an ostomy for urine. The urine drains into a 2 liter (2L) bag on the side of the bed. You must empty this bag at least 2-3 times a day. A Registered Nurse (RN) usually changes the patient's urinary ostomy appliance. However, you must be able to change the ostomy appliance by yourself if needed. You will be trained on how to do this. The patient can also help provide some limited instructions to you on how to do this. The patient eats about 2-3 times per day and occasionally 1-2 snacks. The foods are in the refrigerator, freezer, or kitchen cabinets. If needed, the foods can be easily microwaved.

REQUIREMENTS: -Must provide proof of Covid 19 vaccination(s). -Must pass a criminal background check (at the my / patient's expense). -Must provide at least 1 work reference. If you meet the requirements and want to be considered for the position, please respond with a brief background of your work experience (and resume if available).
