Heart River is a community of life-minded people living, working, growing, and experiencing the beauty and abundance of our natural surroundings. We love coming together around food, music, and being in partnership with each other and with the world around us. We are a growing community in need of highly functional people who can see themselves living, working, and learning with us on this journey.
As a part of this vision of community and function, we are searching for a resident caregiver for an elderly member of our community. The person in need of care is 79 years of age and has been dealing with mild-to-moderate cognitive decline for the past couple of years. He is in very good physical health and continues to maintain a relatively autonomous daily life. He does need significant support, however, and that support is continuing to expand as his condition progresses. To aid him during this time while he lives at home, members of our current support team help with his health needs, meals, appointments, home and property upkeep, repair, and maintenance, and acting as travel partners in support of his strong travel interests.
We're looking for someone with experience in caregiving, healthcare, and/or social work. We want someone seeking a life within a beautiful community of folks all working hard to support each other’s lives toward ever greater function, health, and success. We want someone who can see themselves bringing their whole mind, heart, and soul to this fulfilling work and thriving community life.
Expansive Opportunities:
Our community happens to be nestled right next to Harris Bridge Vineyard, a small independent winery west of Philomath. As such, there are many additional opportunities for expanding your scope of work depending on your interests and vision for your role within this greater web of enterprises.
This position will likely involve several flexible hours of caregiving hours of work daily with additional work for the vineyard/winery/farm as an option if desired.
If you see yourself in this vision of work and life, please contact Peter through this email relay.
