Personal Care Assistant Needed

Posted under Job Opportunities on Jan 21, 2023

Care Provider Position(s) Needed: $18.50/hour + possible credits

Hours: All are flexible and can be worked out directly with student

  • Tuesday/Thursday/Sunday evenings (7-10pm)

Location: Stevens Court Apartments, UW Seattle Campus

Start date: ASAP

My name is Meagan Boll and I am a fourth year WWAMI student that has moved to the Seattle area to complete my clerkships. I am excited for this next chapter in my life, but I am also a tetraplegic that needs assistance getting up in the mornings and getting to bed at night. Between the erratic hours that clerkships require and a shortage of care providers, I have found myself in dire need of help.

I am looking to hire and pay for a Care Provider ($18.50/hr + possible credits) for the following shifts: Sunday, Tuesday, and Thursday night shifts from 7-9/10 pm and fill in shifts as needed (these would be covered by multiple positions, not just one person).

Shifts would include helping to get me dressed/undressed and into my chair or bed as well as light housekeeping and meal prep. I use a Hoyer for transfers and I am, at least in my own opinion, pretty easy to get along with! I live in the Stevens Court Apartments here on campus.

If you have more questions about the position, please email me at the following address. Thank you for your time!!
