$14 – $24/hr • Full time • Starts May 17 • Boonton, NJ
About who needs care: I am a physically disabled (with Spastic Cerebral Palsy) grad school graduate (degree in clinical psychology) who usesa motorized wheelchair for mobility & a ceiling lift for transfers. I have very limited use of my hands (quadriplegia). So I need help with all kinds of personal care, including, but not necessarily limited to, help cleaning up after I use the commode, bed/sponge baths, and some other kinds of 'personal care assistance..'
I have at least two possibly three shifts open. They are currently my 'evening shift' from six-10 p.m. or 4-10 PM, and my 'night shift,' from 10 p.m. in the evening approximately to about 7 a.m. or 6 a.m. the next morning, depending. I have written here the schedules as I have them with the previous caregivers. So the exact hours are somewhat flexible and negotiable.
I also need to explain that the funding for these care shifts comes from a combination of various State funding programs, depending on which shift or shifts you are interested in filling.
Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance. ... more
