Caregiver Needed Immediately for Long Term

GB
Active: More than a month ago

We are looking for someone WHO IS IN Canada and can start now or within the next week. They need to be at least 5'1" in height or taller and strong to help my son with walking and showering. I'm not sure what kind of job you are looking for but here is some information on my son. I just wanted to give you some information on my son and the job. My son is 30yrs old and has cerebral palsy. He occasionally will have seizures as well. He can't talk although he understands simple words. He hears very well and spends most of his day listening to music. He has about 40% eyesight. He requires help in all day to day activities which includes getting up in the morning, toileting, showers, eating and dressing. He is extremely nice and never violent. He likes giving hugs. He can walk with help and only weighs about 43kg. Our house is totally handicap accessible which makes things easier. There is also lots of laundry and house cleaning to do as part of the job. We have 2 caregivers who work for us. The one who has been with us for over 4 years is leaving as she now has gotten her PR card. We need a replacement for her right away. The 2 caregivers have a schedule of 7 days on and 7 days off. During the 7 days on, the work day is roughly from 8:15am to 9:15pm with time off between 2pm and 3:30pm when my son goes down for a rest. They like this schedule as they both have places in the city they go to during their 7 days off. When they are working they live at the house for 7 days and have their own rooms. Before that I had one caregiver who stayed here on her days off too which is fine. Each caregiver has their own room. Currently we pay $16.00 to $18.00 per hour depending on qualifications. We are located in Glencairn which is near Angus in Ontario. If you have any questions, please let me know. If you have a resume of the work you have done and information about yourself I would appreciate if you could send it to me if you are interested. We are looking to find someone to start before August 10 at the latest or immediately. Greg
