Location: Beverly Hills
Schedule: Monday to Friday working days, LIVE IN 24/7
Compensation: Salary, DOE
A lovely elderly gentleman in Beverly Hills is seeking a LIVE IN companion. He recently lost his wife, and could benefit from basic help, such as having coffee prepared in the mornings, daily meal prep, grocery shopping, and light housekeeping (kitchen clean up, vacuuming, laundry, changing linens). He is completely able – bodied and is not presently in need of elderly care, so this is not a traditional caregiver/companion role. His children are seeking someone who can converse with him and keep him company, and keep a general eye on him (making sure he is safe and doesn’t have a fall). The role will also require driving him to a doctor’s appointment, or to meet his friends for dinner.
There is no set schedule, and the majority of the time (besides completing the required tasks and needs of this gentleman), the companion will have a few hours each day to themselves. It IS imperative that all candidates are 100% flexible to LIVE IN full time, 7 days a week, as the family wants someone to be present overnight. The living accommodations are in the downstairs area of the property — a lovely room with a large TV and double bed. There is a dog in the home, so please be pet friendly!
The ideal candidate is discreet, has experience working in this capacity, and understands how to read a room, giving privacy when needed and respecting personal space — sometimes joining him for a meal, and also understanding that sometimes he may want to dine alone. We would love to find someone who is a joy to be around, pleasant to converse with, and happy to be helpful wherever needed. Lovely opportunity for someone seeking a long term position!
