We have a live-in aide/ Companion / Caregiver position available for a thoughtful, reliable person with great people skills. MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS: ● Words to describe you: unflappable, steady, dependable, mature, patient, consistent, down to earth, hard working, and compassionate. ● You thrive working as a communicative, engaging part of a team. ● You are also a great self-starter and are comfortable taking initiative independently ● You have experience with (or advocating for) people with Developmental Disabilities and/or mental health issues. ● You must be at least 18 years old. ● You must be able to pass a DOJ fingerprint clearance and background check. As a live-in aide, you'll live and work with our clients at their home in Watsonville and take them in the community as needed for appointments and shopping. 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. The candidate that is chosen for this position must be available for and will be able to choose from one of the following shifts: Wednesday 3p-Thursday 3p -or- Thursday 8a- Friday 8a. Important to note, this is a live-in position. The candidate who is chosen for this position will be able to live in/occupy the second bedroom of the home 24/7, even when they are not on shift. Opportunities for shift coverage and work in other homes are available for those who may be interested in more hours. 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. At 24 hours per week this is a part time position and would therefore not qualify for benefits- medical, dental and life insurance. For those interested in benefits we can build up to a full time schedule. COMPENSATION: The pay is $20.50 per hour for awake hours (8a-midnight), paid by IHSS through the county of Santa Cruz so you'll need to enroll in In-Home Support Services to become a provider. For overnight shifts, you're paid $16.50 per hour to sleep during sleep hours, up to 8 hours a night (midnight-8a). Your IHSS registration expenses will be promptly reimbursed. Employees who work full time qualify for medical and dental benefits as well as PTO and life insurance.
