Looking for a part-time personal care attendant/PSW
by Colin • Newmarket
My name is Colin, I am a 36 year old male, living with a physical disability called Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. As a result I use a power wheelchair for mobility, a ventilator to assist with breathing via mask or mouthpiece, and a G-tube for nutrition. I require physical assistance with all activities of daily living and personal care. You will be working in my smoke-free home.
The job involves providing physical assistance and personal care required throughout the day 7 days a week. Due to the varying times assistance is required, a team of attendants will be employed, and each would cover specific predetermined shifts and/or provide a relief shift if necessary.
Depending on the shift, responsibilities may include:
• Getting me in or out of bed (transfers with ceiling lift), personal care, bathing etc.
• Care of personal belongings, laundry, light housekeeping
• Meal preparation and assistance with G-tube feeding
• Assistance in the community
• Driving my accessible van (I may request a drivers abstract)
Job Requirements:
• No specific experience required
• Willing and able to learn my care and take direction
• Able to work as a team with myself, members of my family, and coworkers
• Willing to provide assistance with personal needs and household tasks
• Dependable, responsible, reliable, punctual, patient
$395 - $508 Every 2 weeks

I need someone that is comfortable taking care of a 2yrs old toddler with type 1 diabetes. He is on Dexcom and Omnipod so no needles required. Knowing this devices is a plus but I am happy to teach. There will be other people in the house but they are older and not as good with technology so they need help managing my son’s diabetes needs.

I am looking for a caregiver that feels comfortable taking care of a type 1 diabetic toddler (2yr) overnight. I am due this month with baby #2 and will need someone to stay one night (8pm-8am) or 2 depending on how things go at the hospital. The caregiver wouldn’t be alone, there will be family around to attend to the child needs during the day however they are not comfortable dealing with the diabetes part of the care without contacting every step of the way, which is not doable while I am in labour.
Caregiver main job would be keep track of his blood sugars numbers on his phone (dexcom) and manage highs and lows. He uses a pump (omnipod) so no need for injections just need to input the information on his device.
As I dont have a specific birth day yet (will be asking for a possible induction on my next appointment) the person would need to be on call and okay with a short notice.
This will lead to more work (normal hours) as I will need extra help once the new baby comes.
Thanks
