About the job

Seeking hands-on care near Amherst for my adult brother with Intellectual Disability, ASD, OCD and PTSD 47 years old. Assistance with medication is needed. Some light tidying up is involved. One of your responsibilities will be helping with dressing and bathing. Looking for a caring and compassionate companion. We will need someone with a car as he will need to be taken to medical appointments and errands (with a wound vaccuum machine that has 8 hour battery life). He has dexterity issues that prevent safe handling of the machine as he moves about. He is verbally proficient, but has attention and language comprehension issues as well as frequent self stimulatory behaviors. He lives alone and is recovering from partial amputation of the foot due to uncontrolled diabetes and subsequent ulcer that could not heal. Thanks!
