Job description

Description

Looking for a full-time role with more flexibility and fewer workdays? KFI is offering a unique opportunity to complete your 40-hour work week in just 2.5 days!

We are seeking compassionate, friendly, patient, and outgoing people to join a team supporting a 67-year-old Millinocket native who has lived in her own home for 21 years. She is a friendly person who loves community activities like Beano and community suppers and loves to travel to see family and friends. She enjoys spending time in the kitchen assisting with food prep but would love to meet people who love to cook and help her explore new healthy recipes. Puzzles and crafting are also of great interest. Wanda would love to work with support staff who share those interests to join her team. Maintaining and increasing her independence is very important to her. She takes great pride in doing things on her own but will ask for help when she needs it.

The ideal candidates for this team are reliable, enjoy building connections, and share some of Wanda's interests. Candidates will have good listening skills, be naturally curious, and comfortable providing some personal care assistance.

Responsibilities will focus on maintaining friendships, making community connections, pursuing interests in hobbies, and providing assistance with all household tasks including medication administration. Support staff will also provide transportation to appointments and support her with any communication with medical providers.

In this role, the employee will have a live-in arrangement during their scheduled shift. A private room for staff is provided within the house.

No experience necessary! Paid training is provided.
