I'm 24 years old living with family in San Ramon and looking for people to help cover daytime and nighttime caregiving shifts. Overnight shifts also offered. Specific shift times will be determined in the interview stage, as currently most hours are available. All training required is offered on the job, paid, and you will have support during this training. You are not expected to have any prior knowledge or training in caregiving settings. Beginner friendly and entry level!
If you are looking for live-in positions, please do not apply. Due to my medical vulnerabilities all applicants MUST have their up-to-date vaccinations for the flu, COVID-19, and measles. Please either have your vaccinations or make arrangements to receive them when you apply. If you cannot receive vaccinations due to medical complications, an exception will be made for you, and you will be required to wear a mask on shift. Religious and political beliefs will not receive exemptions.
See below for further details. If interested, please apply using this form: https://form.jotform.com/243150847894062
Do not contact me through Craigslist unless there is an issue with the form and you require help. I will contact you about your application once it is submitted. Emailing me is not equivalent to submitting the application linked above - you must complete and submit the application to be considered for this position.
