We are looking for an empathetic, patient, honest, and dependable caregiver to help care for my father, who has Parkinson’s disease and dementia. He is a kind man who enjoys companionship, but due to his condition he has balance and mobility issues, making fall prevention our highest priority. We are looking for someone to assist Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and occasionally Thursday, generally from morning through the early evening, for approximately 15 hours per week (schedule can be discussed). Responsibilities include: * Providing companionship and engaging conversation * Assisting with safe mobility around the home and helping prevent falls * Supervising and assisting with transfers and walking as needed * Accompanying him to different areas of the house and providing a reassuring presence * Light meal preparation * Light housekeeping * Encouraging hydration and assisting with daily routines as needed We’re hoping to find someone who has experience caring for individuals with Parkinson’s disease, dementia, or other mobility-related conditions. The ideal caregiver is calm, observant, reliable, and treats their clients with dignity, patience, and respect. Our goal is to find someone who will become a trusted part of our family and help my father remain safe, comfortable, and engaged in his daily life.
