PCAs Needed (Roseville)

Weekday and weekend PCA’s needed for independent male quadriplegic because of a spinal cord injury. My long-term live-in weekday PCA is moving on after 10 years and he is going to sunny warm Arizona. My weekend PCA is also moving on for other commitments. I’m an easy-going guy and I work full time from home during the week. I enjoy TV, movies, and getting out of the house on weekends. I have good use of my arms, use a power wheelchair for mobility, and have a modified van that I drive myself. Duties Training will be provided. You would be working in my private home. Duties include dressing assistance, bathroom assistance, range-of-motion exercises, meal preparation, laundry, grocery shopping, and light cleaning. Candidate must be able to provide a safe transfer to and from wheelchair. I’m 5’ 11” and weigh about 130 pounds. I have good arm strength so I’m able to hold on for the transfer.
