Personal
Care Assistant position
Pay: 12$/hour
I am a male student studying
history and classics, and I will be attending Arizona full-time living
in Likins Hall this fall. I’m looking to hire students as personal care
assistants to help me on a daily basis I have diffuse low muscle tone and am
dependent on a wheelchair for movement. Duties would include helping me get up
and dressed, use the restroom and get to bed, all depending on which shifts the
PCA wishes to take.
I’ve hired several PCAs already,
but I need to hire more. Some time blocks are very short (less than 15
minutes).
Both my Mom and I will provide training, so you
will not be going in blind. I am very talkative, so I look forward to getting
to know all my assistants. Reliability is key, because without you I will end
up missing classes. Email me at jacknew12@gmail.com if you are interested. Tell me a little about yourself
as well as why you are interested in this job. An over the phone interview will
also be conducted. You must pass a background check, which includes
fingerprinting (as required by the state of Minnesota, where I am from).
PERSONAL CARE ASSISTANT POSITION, SHORT MORNING TIME BLOCK BEFORE YOUR
CLASSES (Position though is open now)
GREAT EXPERIENCE for students interested
in any health profession and such work experience can be an asset on
applications to professional programs.
Some
experience is good but not necessary. I am willing to train enthusiastic
applicants new to caregiving who are looking for experience. Must be
reliable and have transportation.
Monday thru Friday mornings or days you are
available assisting a male quadriplegic
Total time each morning is generally 1.5 hrs once the
routine is learned. Usually takes 2 hrs as we're just getting started and
getting to know how each other works.
Starting time flexible but prefer to start at 6:30
a.m. or 7:00 a.m.
About me: I'm 50 yrs old, been married 25+
yrs, and have had my disability since I was a teenager. I'm pretty easy
going, college educated, and like to talk & joke around. I tend to
get along with almost anybody. Most of my caregivers have stayed with me
for several years (generally 3 up to 10 yrs!). I'm in the downtown Tucson
area, 10 minutes from the UA area. The location has worked well for students.
We don't smoke. We do have 2 dogs who are very friendly.
Primary needs are:
* bathing (in bed),
* dressing,
* full-assist pivot transfer from bed to a wheelchair, I
am not heavy
* adjusting clothes and repositioning in wheelchair for
comfort & safety,
* some very basic breakfast preparation

PERSONAL CARE ASSISTANTS NEEDED:
I am
an Honors junior (soon to be senior) engineering major looking for dependable
personal care assistants that would be available between the hours of 7:30 to 9:30 am, and 8:30
to 10:30 pm weekdays/nights and some weekends.
I am
a quadriplegic at the C-6 level, injured in a diving accident in the summer of
2014.
The
main tasks would include getting ready for the day in the mornings and
preparing for sleep in the evenings. I am in Phoenix for summer break but will
be moving back into my dorm, Arbol de la Vida (Park district) a few days before
school starts in August. I would like to interview interested applicants
soon, in person or by Skype, as it would give ample time to sign up through
the caregiving agency. You can reach me, Alex, by iMessage at (602)-696-7262.
