Posted by:Active: TodayMy friend has some some dementia, Parkinson’s and maybe had a small stroke. He is in a wheelchair all day but he can stand a bit and walk a bit with a walker. I am looking for someone outgoing and talkative who can keep him company for an hour or two a day, do his exercises with him and take him outside to the patio or ‘walk’ him to the Shops of Don Mills in his wheelchair which is only a 5 minute walk away. He wears diapers but the PSWs at the home deal with that. John is a funny friendly polite guy but sometimes gets agitated and confused. He doesn’t have much short term memory and lives in the past so it would be good to have some experience with dementia patients. I need someone to be somewhat flexible as sometimes a physiotherapist might come at that time. This is when he has no activities or is not in the dining room. I think it is important that the person live close to Greenview Lodge at 880 Lawrence Ave E, Toronto M3C 1P6 near the Donway West which is just west of Don Mills Ave and they could walk or take one short bus because the job is only for a short time each day. I have had a lot of applicants for this job but maybe I did not make it clear on the first post about the times and closeness to the location.
