About Housemates for East Grand Rapids resident with special needs
We are looking for two dependable, compassionate, and caring ladies to provide evening and overnight care for our 37-year-old Down Syndrome daughter. She lives in her own home and is capable of caring for her personal needs but lacks the intuition to handle emergencies, especially after dark. The neighborhood is safe and quiet with siblings and parents living nearby for help if needed. She requires social and behavioral guidance on occasion but is very independent. She does not require any medical or mobility assistance. She may need some assistance with the appropriate dress from time to time. She has scheduled activities most days of the week and does not require any at-home assistance during most of the work/study day. This is primarily a companionship relationship with rent and utilities paid as compensation. CLS qualifications are a plus but not required. For a list of responsibilities to offset rent payments partially or completely, please contact me at the email address attached. References are required for nonsmoking applicants.
