About the job

We are looking for a caretaker to provide approx 2 hours of care a night for 3-4 nights in a row for my wife who has ALS. We are looking for support between 9:30 p.m. -11:30 p.m. We are open to slightly different hours on each night if it works better for you. The current care needs include helping her with PT exercises, providing medicine via a feeding tube, bathroom/toileting support, brushing teeth, changing, and transfer from power chair to bed using a power Hoyer lift, and possibly light housekeeping. Looking for a caring, patient, and compassionate, non-smoking person who is comfortable working with someone in a power chair full time. Experience operating a Hoyer lift, power chair, cough assist, mouth "vacuum", feeding tube, and a breathing device (BIPAP) is a plus. We have 2 small dogs and are in Gold River
