Midday Caregiver Needed for Memory Care Support

What’s involved

A downtown Manhattan household is looking for someone to come by midday, daily, to help support an in-home aide with an elderly woman who has Alzheimer's. She can be resistant to getting dressed and to her weekly shower, so this isn't a passive sit-and-watch role — you'll need real experience with older adults, a gentle-but-firm approach, patience, and a good sense of humor to make it work smoothly alongside the existing aide. Pay is $50/hour. Need someone who can be there around midday, every day. To apply, send a resume or a description of relevant caregiving experience, along with an example of a time you had to think on your feet in a stressful work situation.
