It is currently unknown how long I will be here, but at least through the end of July, likely through August, and potentially longer. There could be the opportunity to make the position more permanent if you are interested in traveling to other medical destinations (next up: WA) and/or relocating to Santa Fe, NM, where I typically reside.

Be physically able to perform required tasks (i.e. climb stairs, carry groceries and laundry, lift/carry cases of glass water bottles, etc.)
Be comfortable with and able to incorporate consistent feedback

Schedule: Shifts would generally begin around noon or later. Exact days/hours are negotiable until a set weekly schedule is agreed upon. This could include a mix of 3-10hr shifts, depending on how many days/hours you choose to work weekly. Flexibility is both requested from you and afforded to you in case of illness, emergencies, vacations, etc.

Location: Primary location is my rental home in Conifer, 5min from Natural Grocers. Errands and groceries could involve drives into the greater Denver area (most likely Littleton, Lakewood, etc).
