I'm starting to recruit some PCAs to work with me this
school year. I am a quadriplegic due to a spinal cord injury. I can move
my arms/wrists but I'm unable to move my fingers. I am a full-time wheelchair
user. Some things I need help with might include (but not limited to): light
housekeeping, stretching, grooming, dressing, getting in/out of bed and some
set up for showering.
I hope you also like dogs because I have a service dog and
you may need to help me do some of the things that I cannot do for her such as
cleaning her ears.
Complete training is provided so experience isn't a
requirement. I use a lift system for safe transfers (safe for you and me) but
you still need to be reasonably strong to handle cares like dressing.
A little
about me… I’m a Journalism major that likes a broad variety of music, gaming,
and basketball. Since I'm from Minnesota, I am also looking forward to a
snowless school year again where I can enjoy the weather without getting stuck
in the snow.
It's great
experience and great on your resume if you're pursuing medical and healthcare
careers. (It'll look much better than retail or waitressing!) Email me with a
paragraph about you (hobbies/interests, education, etc), your availability to
work and when you would be available for an interview! I would like to start
interviewing as soon as possible and even earlier via phone, email etc., would
be great.
Lastly, it is required you pass a background study and be
fingerprinted if hired. Above all you must be reliable so I can actually get to
class on time.
Most shifts are two
or three hours and I do live on campus so it's a quick walk from classes.
Pay is $12/hour to start, so if you are interested, contact
me at:
