I am looking to add to our current caregiving team. I am the 68-year-old husband of a 73-year-old wife who is experiencing a significant cognitive decline. She will not allow for a diagnosis, so we are proceeding to assume that this condition will progress. I am currently assisted by 2 paid caregivers. You will work most weeks Th-Fr 6 hrs. a day, between 10 a- 5 p. (12 hrs. per week). You will also be a backup for our primary paid caregivers for days when they cannot make it or is away on vacation. You will be a companion and friend to my wife, so she doesn't necessarily feel that she is being cared for. She likes to go out so need to be comfortable with walking/driving within the neighborhood. She can be stubborn, and she is anti-Trump so need to be comfortable with this.
