Private In-Home Personal Care Attendant/Assistant Wanted

 Private In-Home Personal Care Attendant/Assistant Wanted 

  Temporary now. (July 28 to August 18)

 Sat/Sun/Mon mornings for  1 1/2 to 2 hours

Could become long-term.

 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.

Temporary help needed on Sat., Sun. & Mon. mornings, from 7/28 to 8/18, assisting a male quadriplegic (spinal cord injury) in getting out of bed.  Just a short-term supplement to your normal income at this time while my regular caregiver is away.  Other days could open in the near future.

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.  I'd like to find someone who can start between 7 and 9am weekends and between 6 and 8am on Mondays.

About me:   I'm near 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 and for those stopping before another job or after a night shift.)

We don't smoke.  We do have 2 dogs who are very friendly once they know somebody.

Primary needs are:

* bathing (in bed),

* dressing,

* disconnecting/reconnecting catheter (*NOT* changing a catheter itself)

* full-assist standing pivot transfer from bed to a wheelchair,

* adjusting clothes and repositioning person in wheelchair for comfort & safety,

* some very basic breakfast preparation

If interested please Reply to ad by email <santeet@cox.net> or call me at 882-6679.  If calling, please have a few recent, similar, job-related references you can send by email.

I am letting you know about an upcoming weekend phlebotomy

Details

About. Training is 2 days, Sat July 21 & Sun July 22 from 9-5pm in Campus Health Rm B307. Please arrive by 8:15am on Saturday to check-in. On Sunday, class usually finishes a little earlier around 2:30pm, with an optional discussion afterward about getting into med school and job/volunteer opportunities as a phlebotomist. I recommend checking out the reviews, he is a very experienced instructor.

Cost. The total cost is $335 (including the $80 deposit), which covers classtime, text, and a mock medical kit. Acceptable payment on class day includes cash, cashier's checks* (make payable to MET Services), and money orders.  *Please note personal checks and venmo are currently not being accepted on class day. Snacks are provided, although you will need to bring your own lunch.

Sign-up. 

1. Sign up here to get on the class list. 

Registration is based on a first come, first serve basis, not from the numbering system on the sign-up sheet. The capacity is 30 students. I will be providing you updates on the sign-up sheet as time progresses as far as the number of seats remaining goes.

2. Fill out the attached registration form and turn in your $80 deposit. 

Payments are currently being accepted digitally via venmo @Kassandra-Diaz-10, and in-person via cash, personal/ cashier's check (make payable to MET Services), or money order. 

3. Wait for an email confirmation from me. 

Both the form and deposit need to be turned in before I am able to confirm your seat. 

4. Read the class orientation instructions that will be sent to you in the week before class. 

Notes about certification.

Certification is valid anywhere in the United States for two years from month of class with the exception of California (there is a different state law), although students have also drawn overseas.  

I am happy to answer any questions or concerns or talk with you about my experience as a student in the class if you are interested. I am available via call or text at +1520-204-3518, or email at kassie@email.arizona.edu. I hope to see you in class with us!
