What are the responsibilities and job description for the Personal Care Assistant position at O'Donnell & Co?
About us
O'Donnell & Co is a small family business in Georgetown, TX. Our goal is to find a Personal Assistant/Aide for our daughter, a young adult female with special needs (autism) to be driven to work at BIG-Light in Georgetown, help her stay on task while at BIG, take her to lunch, and drive her back home in Granite Shoals. She is a very good passenger and knows to put her seatbelt on and act appropriately. She usually plays on her iPad while being driven but has some loud utterances and needs to be reminded to use a "quiet voice". She works in a group setting with other adults with special needs making candles, cookies, fudge, and honey. She responds well to positive reinforcement like high-fives, verbal praises and hugs. This job's hours are M-TH 7:45-4:45 (36 hours/week). It involves picking up my daughter in Granite Shoals, driving her to Big-Light in Georgetown, assisting her while at her job, taking her to lunch, and driving her back home to Granite Shoals. Additional hours can be added if needed. We have a ranch in Burnet with horses that she loves to ride, feed and groom. This is a great place to add hours. We will be moving to Burnet in July, so the drive and hence hours/day will be shorter.
Our work environment includes:
- Casual work attire
- Relaxed atmosphere
