Job description

I am looking to hire someone as a night personal care attendant. I live on the southeast side of Rockford near Cherryvale Mall. I am quadriplegic, male, 49, and have been in a wheelchair since I was 15. This job is pretty simple and specific and not very time consuming. I require someone to help me prepare for sleep for the night. This involves taking some meds, putting toothpaste on my tooth brush, then transfer me from my wheelchair to my bed, undress me, and finish getting me ready for the night.

The one caveat is I need someone willing to assist me between 11 and 12 at night. I am a night owl, and it would be preferable if you were as well. Pay would be thru the Illinois Department of Rehabilitation Services. The number of nights you'd work is up to you, and I may hire another person to work the days you do not wish to. I know this job isn’t for everyone, so apply if you’re genuinely interested in helping others and flexible.

This is the person I am looking to hire:

Reliable and Trustworthy

Male. (I don't mind women. I just find that men usually transfer me easier)

25-50 years old

Strong, taller is better, but not entirely necessary

Previous healthcare experience is appreciated, but not necessary. I’ve worked with many whom had no prior experience.

Able to pass a background check (The Illinois Department of Rehabilitation Services makes this a prerequisite before I can hire anyone)

Reliable transportation is absolutely mandatory. This means you own a car and you don't have to share it.

A positive outlook on life and a good attitude are also important. Your life shouldn’t be very chaotic, though I understand some chaos as my family can be dysfunctional as well. This requires you take care of yourself. You should possess a solid work ethic and understand I can’t get to bed without your assistance. This can be a fun opportunity and possibly even rewarding. I need whoever I hire to respect the job expectations, and if they do, we may become good friends.
