Dedicated Private Duty Caregiver Part-Time Hours:

The Russell Family is seeking a dedicated private duty caregiver to support our mom in activities of daily life. She has been courageously living with Multiple Sclerosis for over 35 years; given the progressive nature of MS, she is now fully assisted by a power wheel chair and complete caregiver lifting. Despite these challenges, she maintains a positive outlook and continues to live life to the fullest—which is where YOU come in! Essentially, you are an extension of her, serving as her arms and legs to assist in managing the day to day activities of daily life.

Job Description:

Our caregivers function to make mom's active and meaningful life possible by fully transferring her to and from her power wheel chair, administering intermittent catheters throughout the day, providing full assistance during meals, administering daily medications, and assisting with bathing and grooming. While this description may sound overwhelming, these skills can be learned on the job; it is most important that you have the drive to bring a positive attitude and willing spirit! This position is through a private family employer; we expect our caregivers to operate on the established schedule rotation in a timely and professional manner.

Companionship of a compassionate, patient, and reliable person who is willing to be more than a caregiver , but also a friend . Ability to lift 135 lbs (full body weight) with proper lifting mechanics ; this role requires two strenuous transfers of which you must be fit and capable of performing.
