Part-time Caregiver / Companion in St.Paul, Alberta
(No Ratings Yet)
Loading...My father is 86 years old and gets around on his own occasionally using a cane/walker and can do his own personal care. Both my mother and father live in Northern Alberta – 2 hours northeast of Edmonton.
My mother is 87 and is completely independent. She’s been taking care of my father but definitely needs extra help. The ideal situation is for a live-out caregiver (12 – 15 hours a week). There are 2 – 3 days a week my father would not require any assistance.
Duties would include:
• Motivate him to stay active (doing light exercise, talking him for walks, playing cards etc.)
• Ensuring that he checks his blood sugar and record the readings and takes his medication
• Take him for walks, assist him with his rehab exercises
• Provide general assistance
• Occasionally prepare a meal
Skills:
• Experience with the elderly
• Strong command of the English language.
• Have a valid driver’s license – own vehicle preferred
• Friendly with a sense of humour – he has a great sense of humour
