We are a close, loving family in Penfield, NY.
We are looking for a great fit to our family as a weekend caretaker/companion to our 87 year old Mom who lives with us in our home.
We are looking for someone ASAP.
Mom does NOT need medical care.
Here is what she does need:
Help getting up and getting ready for the day. This includes dressing, providing breakfast and morning pills, brushing teeth, washing hands/face and brushing hair.
Companionship to help provide a meaningful day with things to do (crafts, tv, small walks, sit outside on our patio, conversation, and whatever else you think might be nice to do with her).
Providing her afternoon pill with a light lunch snack.
Guide her through her daily exercises
Encourage drinking throughout the day
Quietly monitor when she walks to the bathroom and be there for her if she needs any assistance in the restroom, or when walking in general
Be a calming influence when she gets anxious
What do we need from you?
Please be over the age of 18
Please commit to every weekend.
Please be on-time.
Please be comfortable making our Mom and her homecare your priority
Please be honest, reliable, trustworthy and kind
How does this work?
Your hours will be paid through NY Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP) - PPL.
You will need to sign up through PPL; we can help you with that.
You will have the option of being paid with a live check or direct deposit.
You will have the option of being taxed on this income or not.
The hourly rate is set by New York State, and is based upon the needs of the specific individual receiving home care. For my Mom, your hourly rate would be $18.10 (pre-tax).
We have a nurse-approved daily checklist that you follow to ensure Mom's needs are being met on a consistent basis.
Please reply to the email on here, or call Janet at (585) 360-9361 - cell - to plan a time to meet our family and answer any other questions you might have.
NO TEXTS PLEASE.
Thank you!
