Looking for male healthcare workers to provide personal care services to male clients who prefer caregivers of the same gender.
We are seeking a part time home care aide to provide personal care to a senior male who needs help with his morning routine. This would be in part to help his wife, who is his primary caregiver, so that she does not have to do it all herself. Duties would include assistance with brushing, showering, personal hygiene and assisting the client with light exercise as part of the morning routine. The companion should preferably be able to speak Hindi, Punjabi, and English.
Shifts would be for 4 hours in the morning starting at 8:30 am. This job is ideal for someone who has another job that starts in the afternoon and is looking to fill some available time in the mornings with extra work. Please apply to learn more!
Now, a bit about us, ComForCare is a Canadian leader in the in-home elder care industry with programs designed to stabilize and improve quality of life.
