Male Caregiver Needed for Part-time Case in Tampa

We have a client in Tampa who needs companionship care for approximately 4 hours per day, 6 days per month, beginning in April. He is very independent and in his right mind. He is a fall-risk, so he would like to have someone stand by to assist him with mobility as needed. He prefers a male caregiver and he would like to meet you before his care schedule begins.
