Caregiver

Visiting Angels of West Springfield•Northampton, MA

About The Position

Caregivers are needed to assist elder alums during their college reunion. This college is a prestigious private women's liberal arts college founded in 1871. We are developing a team of caregivers for this special event. This group of fascinating elder women graduated in between 1951 to 1961. They're ages range from 97 to 87, All but 1, have a companion, who may not be experienced in elder care. The 1 who doesn't have a companion does have an "on call" companion. Past experience shows a history that these amazing women are generally fit. However, travel may deplete them and they may need an extra level of care. May need to provide: personal care assist with presenting prepared meals assist in the transitions to various on campus reunion activities (shuttle provided) check in on the well being of the alums suggest hydration, a rest call upon campus safety for them to access if an ER visit is necessary. Here is the very Best Part... Actually, The Best part is this... you will be expected to "spend time in the residence house with the alums - they are amazing human beings with great stories! Talk with them and get to know them and their companions." Oh my goodness! this part is so priceless! I'm kind of jealous because, I want to hear these stories. Visiting Angels is passionate to provide care and reassurance to these alums, their families, their colleagues, and their beloved college of a Safe and beautiful reunion. I, as the Owner of Visiting Angels in West Springfield/Holyoke MA, am calling out to any experienced caregivers.... especially, our nursing students, or college student with caregiver experience, or caregivers who just admire and honor our historic women alums and their history.
