About the Role
This is a highly personal, long-term opportunity to support one individual (James — a university professor and health coach living with a spinal cord injury) in living fully and independently at home, at work, and in the community.
You’ll provide a mix of hands-on care (transfers, hygiene, catheter and colostomy care, medications, meal prep, etc.) alongside personal support, wellness routines, outings, creative activities, and occasional travel or events. The role blends clinical skill with meaningful daily connection — not agency shift work. You’ll join a small, dependable team that works collaboratively to support a full daily rhythm.

- Morning and evening care routines
- Transfers using a ceiling lift (training provided)
- Meal prep and cleanup
- Clinical tasks (catheter care, colostomy, skin checks, medications, etc.)
- Outings, recreational activities, and social events
- Transportation using wheelchair-accessible vehicle
- Light household support, errands, and organization
- Supporting wellness, exercise, and personal routines

- Paid overnight sleep shifts also available
- Occasional fill-in or additional coverage as needed
- Live-in option available for the right fit
- Training provided; long-term growth encouraged
Compensation
- $25–$30/hour for day shifts (based on experience)
- $50 per overnight sleep shift
- Live-in option includes free room and board — furnished housing, utilities, and other benefits
Who This Might Be a Fit For

- Students or professionals in health, rehab, or wellness fields
