Part-time Admin Assistant and House Helper

My wife and I are looking for part-time admin and house help. My wife was diagnosed with a chronic illness and has been recovering from a surgery in May of 2023. I recently returned to full-time work after a family medical leave, so my wife needs some help with computer and phone-based tasks. She also needs rides to/from medical appointments and other errands.

No medical skills are required, but experience dealing with pharmacies, health insurance, and medical offices - both on the phone and via email and online messaging portals - would be very helpful.

Importantly, she can't tolerate many kinds of strong scents - for example, perfumes, certain kinds of skin/bath/hair care products, cigarettes, so we would need to meet you in person to make sure there aren't any scents that might trigger her symptoms. To recap, these are the tasks she'll need help with:

- phone calls and computer-based tasks for healthcare management

- errands and rides to appointments, vehicle provided

- help around the home - e.g. reheating leftovers, laundry, emptying the dishwasher

Other requirements:

- no perfumes, colognes or strongly scented products

- proficient with computers, email, Google Drive, & Chrome

- strong English speaker

- comfortable using a Mac

- comfortable with dogs (we have a Labrador Retriever)

- Driver's License

- no tobacco smoking

We can offer $20/hr. This job will likely require 2-3 days per week, and 2-4 hours per day.

A little bit about us: We're both originally from Michigan and spend most weekends going on short hikes and exploring the area with our chocolate labrador. We're new to Virginia, and are excited to learn about its history and also fun things to do and see around here. We both have worked in technology - my wife is a UX researcher and I'm a software engineer.
