Adssistant is an employment web portal that provides a national database on available jobs in the fields of disabilities, senior services, human services and personal care services, just to name a few. Additionally, the site provides a Classified Ad section where anyone can post or read disability-related classifieds. This site is disability-owned and operated, and as such, we understand the needs and expectations of people with disabilities and those who work with them. Sell that used van, car, or wheelchair using or easy fill and photo upload program. Don't let items just sit make our planet greener by recycling and reselling, and put a little green in your pocket. Classified Ads Portal Adssistant Classifieds are a great way to buy and sell everything from homes and vehicles, to wheelchairs. This is the perfect place to find great items at great prices. Unlike other ad magazines and websites, Adssistant is priced to be accessible to everyone. With a 2-photo ad starting at $19.95 for two months we make it easy for you to list and sell your product. The site is easy to use and clutter-free. Employment Adssistant, like our sister website www.thisabled.com, takes the unemployment and under-employment of people with disabilities seriously. That is why we decided to promote the talents of people with disabilities, and those who serve them right on our site. Adssistant is a single point of entry to assist you in navigating diverse career opportunities. Posting your resume in our database is a great way to get your talents noticed. If you are a nurse seeking that first job or a person with a disability moving to a better position, this site is for you. Posting your resume is free and easy to do on our site. Once it is posted it will be available to employers from throughout the United States. The fields within our site are varied and allow for a great deal of diversity for employers and employees. Unlike the mammoth career websites, our focus will always be on your future and exposure; hence, our narrow focus on serving people with disabilities and those who work in this field. Personal Care Assistant Portal According to a recent report, between now and 2015 the "old-old", aged 85 and older (who are most likely to require long-term care) will increase by 40%. At the same time, the workforce of both paid and informal caregivers will not increase at all. The aging of America will speed up after 2015 and will continue to do so until 2050. The Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts a 45% increase in demand for long-term care by 2010. This would require about 800,000 new jobs for nurse aides, home care personnel and personal care. The increase in demand will be greatest in home care settings. (The Long-Term Care Workforce: Can the Crisis be Fixed? Problems, Causes and Options. January 2007). In fact, the United States will see a dramatic decrease of people available to serve as personal care assistants within this decade. Therefore, it is more important than ever to have a place like Adssistant, where you can find personal care service providers such as direct care assistants and provider agencies. Adssistant is built on a "consumer-driven" service model where you, the person seeking the services, choose among a pool of personal care assistants and agencies in our database. Once registered with you will gain access to the ever-growing list of people who you can call, interview and hire. If you rather work through an agency, then you can also access our list of professional service providers. Adssistant.com April 2009
