Well-spoken and kind-hearted companion/caregiver needed for lady (82) with dementia in Bridgehampton, NY. Ideal candidate has either some educational or healthcare background (comparable alternative experience considered). Driver's license necessary.
This position is situated 2 hours from NYC, in the beautiful Hamptons, NY, 5 minutes from sandy beaches, in the midst of picturesque, well-kept countryside. Sunny house and ideal working conditions. One cat.
The scope of the position involves companionship (conversations, reading the newspaper/books to the lady, watching and discussing documentaries), warming up food (some ability to cook simple meals is appreciated but not necessary), and assistance with getting dressed, everyday tasks and hygiene in the bathroom (lady so far is housebroken but needs help completing some bathroom tasks). Needs to be strong enough to lift 96 pounds (lady's weight) out of the bathtub. (I weigh 118 pounds and so far could do it on my own.)
Time of the opening is either ASAP or from September, 2019. (open to both possibilities)
Only the following emails will be considered and answered: PHOTO included (face, eyes visible), information on applicant's current commitments (pets, plants, spouse/child/other dependent situation), recent and current employment history/relevant life story. Any limitations and most importantly: some description on hobbies and on what makes the applicant happy! :) (Household includes a 11-year-old girl, myself and my husband and we like people around us to be reasonably well balanced and satisfied.)
