I'm looking for an additional caregiver to help take care of my dad, who lives in a lovely and spacious home in Waterloo (Keats Way & University Ave.). My dad is 78 years old and has Parkinson's, is a gentle, sweet soul who is friendly/mild-mannered, used to be a chemical engineer, and likes old Bollywood movies/songs. His mobility tends to fluctuate, and he needs assistance with most things (dementia patient). He gets a daily PSW visit in the mornings. At present, myself (the son) and a few part-time caregivers take care of him, and this vacancy comes up as our live-in caregiver for the past 3 years will soon be shifting. As such, there is a gap of about 36 hours/week or so to fill (perhaps spread over 5 days/week). A live-in caregiver is preferred, although live-out is also an option. I myself am at the house about half the time (I also manage another house nearby), and am fairly flexible scheduling-wise. I do about 15-20 hrs/week with dad, and the other part-time caregivers do about 40 hrs/week total. He's up and about between 8 am and 9 pm most days, nights are generally restful. Some potential responsibilities would include: ~ mobility support (being able to lift/support a 145 lb man, often on bed or couch, would be beneficial) ~ meal prep/serving, experience or ability to make Indian meals would be helpful ~ administering medicines ~ light housekeeping, laundry, etc. ~ dressing & grooming (the PSW typically gives him a bath, but he needs occasional clothing changes due to incontinence). ~ companionship (speaking Hindi/Punjabi would be beneficial, though he speaks English fine too), his wife of 48 years (my mom) passed away a few years ago. Private room and food would be included. We also have my friendly dog at the house, which is a spacious 3000-sqft bungalow with lots of greenery. Candidates with calm, quiet, mature, compassionate energy, and a spirit of service (for which you will be appreciatively compensated) preferred! Feel free to reach out if interested or if you have any questions.
