Job Description

Open Your Heart, Open Your Home, Caregiving with Love

Nonotuck Resource Associates is a state-wide agency that has provided Shared Living since 1972 to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities; as well as adults with acquired brain injuries and elders. Shared living is a 24-hour community-based residential service. We support and assist people who wish to remain living in the community and neighborhoods of their choosing.

Nonotuck Resource Associates is looking for an active, kind, patient, and well-balanced live-in caregiver in Franklin/Hampshire County to share a home and life with an adult with a disability in a state-funded model of care known as Shared Living.

The duties of the shared living provider will include but not be limited to building on and maintaining independence by being able to assist in activities of daily living (ADLs) such as participation in regular household routines, providing companionship and going out on community activities/outings. Care Providers would be responsible for helping with grocery shopping, cooking, housekeeping, laundry, routine budget management, medication management, and medical appointments.
