Live-in Carer

Description

I am looking for a carer, ideally a strong female/male, in our house to help with care for my gentle father, who has suffered from a stroke and dementia. He is friendly, gentle and very cooperative. And, I am looking for someone more like a wonderful ‘companion’ than anything else. He needs help with everything from personal care and prompting to initiating and cuing him to do things, as well as taking him out to the park, etc. This is one of the important exercises in his routine.

I am looking for someone with EXPERIENCE working with (nursing) caring experience or working with elderly adults. If you don't have relevant experience, please do not apply.

You must be responsible, reliable, trustworthy, and, above all, very caring and patient. YOU MUST SPEAK either any one of these languages: Arabic, Italian, Amharic or Tigrinya. Also, you must be able to cook healthy meals and do housework.

You will work 7 days a week, from Monday to Sunday. You will have free time in the afternoon between 1:30 pm until 4 pm, when he takes an afternoon nap. And, potentially two half days off. He sleeps throughout the night mostly. He has a routine, and he strictly follows it.

The salary will be 1500 per month. This could be partially paid in cash and through contracts.

If you are interested, please provide a CV and references, as well as a DBS/CRB.

We hope to hear from you soon!
