I am a vibrant and active 41-year-old woman who lives and works full-time in Durham, NC. I have a type of muscular dystrophy and use a power wheelchair. I love being outside as much as possible and enjoy exploring all that this area has to offer. When possible, I love to travel and explore new areas. I am an open-minded and forward-thinking person. Health and wellness are important elements of my life. I have a very diverse group of friends from all types of backgrounds and lifestyles who I value tremendously.
I am, also, a big animal lover. I have two dogs and two cats who are very important to me. It is important for me to know they are being treated with kindness and respect.
I am looking to hire a personal care assistant to help me with activities of daily living, such as transferring (I am not able to physically assist with the transfers) and dressing. Other things I need help with include cleaning, food preparation, and cooking, driving me places, helping me care for my animals, etc. It would pretty much be anything I can't do myself.
I rely on my care providers to help me continue to live a vibrant and active life. I am looking for someone who is kind, dependable, responsible, able to follow directions, and willing to help. Please be a non-smoker with a clean driving record and reliable transportation. Please also be Covid vaccinated as I am high risk.
The standard pay is $20 an hour. I have Thursday mornings (6:30 am - 11:30 am/12 pm) as well as Saturdays (8 am–4/5 pm) available.
If interested, please fill out the following form and I will be in touch: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSevqkLp4HjRk2E8oJMJ4fwBe2afGioFr9Hs24-dKqVcwZtdA/viewform?usp=sflink
I look forward to talking more about the position.
