Sarasota, FL
Part Time
Paid
  • Responsibilities

    We are currently seeking a Caregiver to provide assistance to an elderly woman with dementia on SATURDAYS from 8:00AM to 8:00PM. She lives in a memory unit in south Sarasota. She needs companionship and guidance that the facility is not staffed to provide. She’s a pleasant person but the effects of dementia mean that she can be moody and in need of persistent coaxing (to eat, to go for a walk, to use the bathroom, etc.).

    Responsibilities:

    Monitoring the client’s condition while providing companionship.

    Accompanying her to meals and encouraging her to eat.

    Assisting her with toileting – helping to change her and cleaning her as needed.

    Walking with her within the facility, something she enjoys.

    Writing shift notes describing the events of each shift.

    Requirements:

    Prior experience in caregiving preferred but not required; training will be provided.

    Compassionate and patient demeanor.

    Ability to communicate effectively with the client and her family.

    Valid Florida driver's license and a reliable vehicle (with current registration and insurance).

    A “Level II” background clearance.

    A lack of any felony convictions.
