Save JobJob Description
Hello my dad is 75 my daughter and I live with him. He's still recovering from femur break in December. He's now down to going to physical therapy 2 times a week. He's now allowed to walk with walker with 100lb. weight limit on the recovering leg. He does still use the wheel chair daily. The only thing we are needing for him is help bathing. He can not step up into his shower stall on his own and will not allow us to help him. A typical visit I think would be to help him undress get him into shower which would require some strength. I think he is 230lbs. help wash him. His bathroom will also require cleaning and changing of his bedding. he needs to have lotion applied everywhere and his feet and toe nails will always need attention and cutting. I would like someone to come out about 3 hours twice a week. I think he will soon be happy with this because then he would have someone to talk to. He's widowed and has some depression. I can be flexible on days except at this time he is at pt mon wed and some Fridays. If this goes well possibly hours can be increased.
