We are looking for a caregiver for my wife, Ally, Tues-Thurs. She is bed bound with severe ME/CFS (an illness that attacks the immune and nervous systems), meaning she is easily overstimulated by light, noises, and strong smells. No ME/CFS experience is required but would be highly valued. We will train. Duties: detailed note taking, changing, feeding, sponge-bathing, washing dishes, and giving medications. Ally's care is in a low-lit room. Requirements: independent transportation, phone, up to date vaccines. Must wear a mask, take rapid tests as requested (we will supply), climb stairs, and be ok with cats. The ideal candidate is calm, meticulous, open to feedback, and able to execute tasks quietly with little communication from Ally. They would be a non-smoker and wear no strong perfume. Must be at least 18 and be able to lift 40 lbs.
