Personal Support Worker (PSW)

am a male quadriplegic seeking assistance on Wednesday afternoons from 3:30-5 PM (1.5 hour shifts). These shifts do NOT involve personal care. A typical shift includes mainly meal preparation, but also some assistance with basic activities of daily living, such as laundry, light housekeeping, filing/scanning, etc. You do NOT need to know how to cook. I will ALWAYS tell you exactly want I want to eat and how to make it. You just need to be able to take my direction and apply it (basically act as my arms and legs).

WAGE: $25/hour.

LOCATION: Frontier Drive (Doon area) -- just off the 401 near Conestoga College. Please apply ONLY if you have your driver's license as described above and a vehicle to drive here. While I appreciate all interest in the position, please DO NOT apply if you would need to walk, bicycle, or take the bus to my home.

This is NOT a cash job. I am a part of the Direct Funding Program, which is a program funded by the Ministry of Health that enables adults with physical disabilities to become employers of their own helpers. So, rather than working for a bureaucratic healthcare provider, you get to work directly for and with the person with the disability (me). See www.dfontario.ca for more info.

The shifts themselves are quite easy. If you enjoy any one of movies, concerts, traveling, sports, or Game of Thrones, we’ll have plenty to chat about. :) If you don't like any of that, then I don't know what to say...but I'm sure we'll still get along! :D So, if you are a dependable person with a positive attitude and are just looking to make some quick, easy money every Wednesday afternoon, PLEASE APPLY!

Due to the typically high volume of responses, only those selected for an interview will be contacted. If you are reading this ad, this position is still available.

Thanks!
