Save JobJob Description
My mother had a stroke three weeks ago and is now bedridden and mostly immobile. She came home a few days ago and lives with my father, who is also elderly. We are looking for a CNA or someone with other professional medical caregiving experience that can provide the level of care she needs. She needs assistance with toileting (catheter and diaper/pads), bathing, eating, transitioning from the bed to a wheelchair, and some meal prep. We need help from someone with experience in caring for immobile stroke victims, palliative care, hospice care, etc. Her children will come on weekends to assist with grocery shopping, cleaning, companionship, and assisting with her care needs, but we really need someone knowledgeable about how to properly care for an immobile stroke victim. We are still trying to navigate things and determine the amount of care she will need going forward, but we are thinking of hiring a caregiver (possibly more than one, depending on scheduling and availability) to come twice a day for 2-3 hours (morning and evening). We are hoping to have someone start as early as next week, and are hoping we can do a meet and greet ASAP to get the ball rolling.
