This couple leads an independent and personally fulfilling life. You'll be part of an experienced team of caregivers who support them. It's a job that's both fun and meaningful. A lot of our clients used to live in group homes or institutions, and now enjoy the freedom to live as they choose. CURRENT CLIENT OPENINGS: This position is located in Bay Village in Watsonville close to East Lake shopping center. We currently only have one 24 hour shift available per week with this couple.

This is a great opportunity for a person who is looking for paid work as well as housing. In this position you would be serving a developmentally disabled couple who also happen to be senior citizens. They need help with cooking, cleaning, basic hygiene, medication administration etc. They are both ambulatory so they navigate their home and the community well and are both pretty independent. They mostly sleep through the night (8-10 hours usually) with the exception of a 1am bathroom reminder. Folks who have a car for an outing would be appreciated but it is not required.
