The basic expectation of the position is to provide companionship, some meal preparation, help dressing, grocery shopping and take care of simple household tasks such as laundry and some standard housekeeping and a basic safety presence. The housemate would be available for six nights a week to be present if anything should happen during the night that the client needs help with, such as a fall, an illness, etc. and would be required to do some shifts during the day. Rent and utilities are free and a monthly stipend is given.

The housemate will have a private bedroom near the client for overnight presence, while also having a spacious private living space downstairs, with kitchenette, full bathroom and bed, for off-shift independence.
