She is on a waiting list for Assisted Living now, and we have been told this will take from 6 months to 2 years. She needs assistance with meals, and her showers. She needs someone there at night for safety and security. She uses a walker and likes to go for walks. We have Luxcare coming for 2 hours every morning and VIHA comes in the evenings as well. We can provide respite for you, and work out time off when needed. She needs someone with a Driver's Licence to take her to appointments and visits with Dad at Luther Court. She lives in a beautiful home in Gordon Head. You would have the Primary Suite in the home which is a lovely bedroom, walk-in closet and private bathroom as well. We want someone caring and compassionate. You must have experience either in nursing OR you must be an experienced care-aide, You must have the education and be able to prove that to us, and have references as well. Please do not apply if you do not have experience. Compensation is negotiable and would include free room and board. She has a lovely home. No house keeping required except perhaps dishes if the dishwasher is full already. She has a medical care company coming each day mornings and evenings, so this would be just for the afternoons.
