🌟 Unique Living and Working Opportunity 🌟
This is an excellent opportunity for a young and ambitious individual looking for a place to live and a job (with compensation, see below). The job requires relocating to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, a destination island with lots of beaches and recreational activities. Join our dynamic caregiving team and make a meaningful impact while residing in a luxurious 4-bedroom home!
About Me: I’m a spirited individual living with ALS, using innovative tech to stay active and connected. I rely on a feeding tube, ventilator with tracheostomy, Hoyer lift, and a computer to communicate. No prior experience is needed for the job, though – we’ll guide you every step of the way!
Before my ALS diagnosis, I lived in NYC, working for a global consulting firm. I loved biking around the city, traveling, and hanging out with friends. I try to stay positive and like to laugh, I also have a serious side to me depending on what I am doing. I was diagnosed at 38 and am now 46.
Your New Home: I live alone with my caregivers. You will have your own furnished bedroom in a 4 bedroom house. You and one other caregiver will occupy two of the three bedrooms upstairs. I am in the master bedroom downstairs. It is a spacious home with a large kitchen, a mini gym in the garage, electric bikes, and more. The house is in a private community with a pool, a private beach and other amenities. You’ll be part of a supportive and friendly household.
The Vibe: The environment is unique because we work and live together (which we love, but it’s not for everyone). We have a lot of fun working together, and each of us is working towards our own goals (school, careers, projects, etc.). The house is generally quiet day and night as people are usually in their rooms when they are not on shift. We enjoy having background music during the day and occasionally have friends over for drinks in the evening.
The island scene is full of restaurants and bars accessible by bicycle. Additionally, it offers many recreational activities, including zip lining, boating, fishing, and hiking. The University of South Carolina Beaufort (USBC) is conveniently located nearby, attracting a vibrant student population and contributing to the island’s youthful atmosphere. Savannah, GA and Charleston, SC are nearby cities that are renowned for their artistic ambience and nightlife.
Your roommates: It will be just me and one other person, you will be one of two live-in caregivers. The other live-in caregiver is a 22 year old male from NYC and is an easy person to work with. He primarily focuses on his studies (software engineering), is hilariously extroverted, not afraid to speak his mind, and has quickly become one of my very good friends. He has been with me for two years and has found this place to be an ideal environment for self-discovery and planning his future. We are both single and gay (LGBTQ friendly)
Additionally, there are two external caregivers, a personal assistant, and a house manager who live nearby.
