I am looking for a responsible, dependable caregiver to help me in the evening, five days a week. Male or female is fine. I am in a wheelchair, a quadriplegic, paralyzed from the chest down, so anything that requires hands or feet, I need help doing. Compensation for your help is $25/hr. The positions require that you have a driver’s license. I live with my wife in a house in Darnestown, outside of Germantown and Gaithersburg. The nearest bus route is 1½ miles away so having your own vehicle/transportation is required. Additionally, we have a dog, a yellow lab named, Honey, that I need occasional help with too.

The shift I have available is,

M-F 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM

Attendance needs to be on time and consistent because my wife has a fulltime job that she cannot miss due to absentee caregivers.

The evening shift usually involves helping me with activities after dinner but may include assisting me with dinner. The shift may require driving to activities and running errands. I typically go to bed around 8:00 which requires caregiver help; that involves help with some toiletries, undressing, range of motion, etc., usually lasting around 60 minutes.

I am a professional 62 year-old disabled man, married and in good health. My wife and I prefer to keep a reasonably clean and quiet home. We enjoy work, family, music, reading, road trips and travel, movies, cooking, a good conversation with a friend, engineering projects, etc. We are Christians, spiritually active and attend church weekly.

If you are interested, please call Barry, at 425-327-1850 (please text first). We can talk further and possibly set up a personal interview appointment. Please call no later than 8:00 pm. Also, all applicants must be able to complete an in-person interview, so please apply only if you live in the area.

Thanks,

Barry
