Save JobJob Description
My energetic and wonderful 80 year old mother has just had double knee surgery in NYC and needs a little help in her Lake Placid home. She has done a few weeks of rehab here in NYC and is already able to move, get up, get dressed, and walk a little, but she would need some help with things like showering/ getting to the bathroom, helping out with physical therapy exercises, and some cleaning. She would need this care to begin on or around June 4th, lasting for a few weeks to a month, and the schedule should be pretty flexible while we adapt to her needs and see what works. About you: kind, considerate and friendly. Quite a bit of experience within home health care/nursing. Physical therapy exp. a definite benefit. If you think this might work- would love to speak with you!
