Seeking Full-time Senior Care Provider In San Jose - My aunt has ...
$18 – $50/hr • Full time • Starts May 14 • San Jose, CA
About who needs care: My aunt has advanced MS and cannot walk or move most of her body - only very limited movements with her arms and head.She leads a fairly laid back life but would ideally have someone to help bathe her, take her to the restroom, and maybe go on a walk in her wheelchair. She used to be a preschool teacher and is a hippie at heart. I'm excited for a caregiver to give her back some dignity and some independence from her boyfriend and mom, as well as give them a much needed break. Thank you for your time!
About the care needs: My aunt is a hippie and loves to sing and have fun! She loves telling stories and laughing and used to dance all the time. A fun loving, free-spirited person would be best. Also, someone who could braid hair would be a perfect fit!
However, her mom can be a little tough to please and is a decision maker in my aunt's life, so I think someone who could also be very professional and knowledgeable would be great.
We also use a chair lift to move my aunt around, so prior knowledge of that would be helpful.
Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance. ... more
