We are looking for someone to be a companion to and assist my husband, who has Parkinson's disease and is confined to a wheelchair. We do not need a trained physical therapist, but someone who can help my husband keep up with various exercises he should do. In addition, doing jigsaw puzzles and/or playing video games on a PS5, would be great. He also may need some help getting to and from the bathroom. He lives in an assisted living facility, so there are trained aides available to help with transfers, toileting, etc. A pleasant person who can deal with some ups and downs ( he has good days and bad days) is what we need.
