We are seeking a reliable, patient, and compassionate caregiver to provide 1-on-1 care for a senior male client living with late-stage dementia in Guatay on Friday mornings. This schedule provides consistent weekly hours to allow his primary family caregivers to attend a support group.

While the client is physically stable and mobile, he requires hands-on assistance, prompt prompting, and close supervision for hygiene and meal routines due to cognitive decline.

Key Responsibilities:

Toileting & Incontinence Care: Prompt and escort client to the bathroom hourly. Assist with pulling down/up pants, encourage toilet use, change briefs if wet/soiled, and ensure proper hygiene and skin care (recent history of UTI, so maintaining cleanliness is critical).
Meal Preparation & Assistance: Prepare breakfast/lunch. Food must be cooled off, chopped into small bite-sized pieces, and served directly in front of him to encourage recognition and eating.
Companionship & Safety: Provide calm, supportive supervision while family is away for 5 hours. Maintain a structured, safe environment.

Home & Environment Notes:

Friendly dogs and roaming cats live in the home. Dogs will be secured/locked up during your shift.

Requirements & Qualifications:

Active Home Care Aide (HCA) registration with CDSS (or willing to register).
Completed Live Scan background check.
Negative TB test result dated within the last 90 days before hire.
Prior experience working with seniors with late-stage dementia or Alzheimer's.
Experience with adult incontinence care and safe hygiene practices.
Dependable, punctual, and comfortable working independently in a rural home environment.
