About the job
Looking for a personal care assistant for 1-2 hrs 1x a week, increasing to 3x/week, to provide physical and visual assistance with activities such as the physical aspects of working on my dissertation for my PhD program (e. g. setting up my laptop, helping with reaching items, getting/opening a drink/snack). going for walks, or going to a cafe or shopping (I have my own transportation). I only require physical assistance and visual guidance, not intellectual support. I have a form of muscular dystrophy and use a wheelchair full-time, and I have blind spots in my visual field in both eyes. My incredible mom has been my full-time aid for 12 yrs now, and my dad helps as well, but I am looking to increase my independence and give both me and my parents a little bit of time every week or so to relax and complete tasks on our own schedules. :-)
