We are looking for a dedicated support staff member that can provide focused assistance to an adult who suffers from stable Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The patient presents with a notable weakness on their right side which requires some additional care in everyday activities. The ideal candidate for this role would identify as female, and should ideally be literate in computer usage. This nuance aids in managing any potential online tasks or appointments that could arise during the course of caring for the individual. Apart from indoor care, the role occasionally involves venturing outside the home for various errands. One such requirement would include accompanying the patient for shopping trips to the mall. The ideal candidate should thus, be comfortable navigating commercial environments to aid in the comfortable and smooth conduct of such outings. In addition to this, the individual would also need to escort the patient to and from medical appointments. As such appointments require the use of an accessible vehicle, comfort and knowledge in this specific type of transportation would be a considerable asset. Aside from assistance with movement, the individual in our care also requires exposure to certain physical activities. These may involve active and/or passive exercises, aimed at maintaining the patient's physical health. Moreover, the utilization of an electric massage chair might also be required to ensure the physical well-being of the patient. As such, the preferred candidate would have working knowledge of such healthcare equipment. An additional facet of this role includes meal planning and preparation. The ideal candidate will have a basic understanding of nutrition, so as to assist in crafting simple, yet healthy meals that would adequately cater to the patient's dietary needs. All these responsibilities require a compassionate and attentive individual to refine the everyday quality of life for the recipient of these services.MoreSalary: Negotiable, based on experience30 - 40 hours/weekScheduleDesired start date immediatelyMorningAfternoonEveningOvernightMTWThFSaSuCaregiver is responsible forProfessional skillsHousekeepingLaundryClean BathroomAssist with WalkingHand Wash DishesPlan Visits, Outings, & Trips to Visit Neighbours, Friends, FamilyMoreWilling to work with or have experience withWork with diagnosesParalysisAdditional requirementsNot Applicable Active: Hour ago • Member since: June 2023Address
