Overview
Front Desk Team Member Jobs in Sacramento, CA at The Sanctuary
I am an outgoing, Ivy‑educated quadriplegic attorney seeking bright, compassionate, and responsible part‑time workers to help with personal care, transportation, or other personal‑assistant tasks. Your support will keep me active in legal advocacy, local volunteer tutoring, social outings, cultural events, and occasional writing projects.
Immediate Need
Weekday mornings, 8 AM – 2 PM, Monday through Friday. During these hours you would assist with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, toileting, feeding, and transfers using a Hoyer lift. No heavy lifting is required, though some arm and back strength for repositioning is helpful.
Additional Potential Shifts Afternoon, evening, and weekend hours are also available. These shifts may involve driving my wheelchair‑accessible van to meetings, museums, concerts, parks, or restaurants, helping with my community volunteering (e.g. tutoring sessions), or assisting with my evening routine and preparing me for bed. Schedules are flexible. Some workers may cover only one or two shifts each week, while others may build a near full‑time schedule, depending on mutual availability.
Important Note There is an immediate opening for the weekday‑morning shift. Additional hours, are likely and will be finalized during the hiring process.
Training and Experience No prior care experience is required; I have decades of success training first‑time aides. Excellent communication skills, a friendly disposition, and a quick ability to learn are essential.
Additional Information A valid driver’s license, clean driving record, and personal auto insurance are required only for applicants who will be driving (you would use my van, so there is no wear on your own car). Proof of eligibility to work in the United States is required for all hires. Occasional day or weekend trips outside the local area are optional opportunities for extra hours, not a requirement.
Benefits of the Position
You will gain hands‑on experience, stimulating conversation, and exposure to advocacy and cultural life. Many former assistants have gone on to careers in nursing, occupational therapy, physical therapy, medicine, social work, law, psychology, art, and public policy.
Compensation $20 – $23 per hour. Starting rate within the range depends on responsibilities and experience. Weekly hours can range from a single shift of a few hours to 30+ hours, depending on your availability and our mutual fit.
