Vacancy expired!
I am paralyzed from the shoulders down and need assistance with my morning care. This involves helping me dress and transferred into my wheelchair. I have a regular caretaker who does this, but I need someone to serve as a backup when she gets sick, takes a vacation, etc.
Candidates must reside near the VA hospital in Columbia (within a 5-10 minute drive). The start time is between 7 and 7:30a.m. The care usually takes less than 1 hour. The caretaker will be paid a minimum of $30 per visit. If the care takes more than 1 hour, additional payment will be made based on an hourly rate of $15 per hour. In sum, the candidate's situation should enable her or him to be on call Monday thru Friday mornings.
Background checks will be performed on all applicants invited for an interview.
Please send a resume or work history when applying for this job.
