We are looking for a personal assistant to help an 88-year-old male with personal care, medication, and light meal prep. The individual has Dementia and is an active character that enjoys other people's company. The support is to help with personal care in the morning, then catheter checks, medication, meals, and fluids assistance, then ready for bed.
Our client is looking for someone who is patient, caring and supportive. This post is looking for someone to encourage and support our client to shower, shave, brush teeth and help to dress each day, empty his catheter, give him his medication and eye drops. Making the client breakfast would also be part of the role. We are currently getting this role reassessed so additional hours may follow.
