She already has a set schedule. She weighs about 85lbs very manageable. I am negotiable with the start time and end time whether it's 3-4 hours. You will arrive to wake her up from her nap, ambulate her to the bathroom (she could walk with some assistance with non-slip socks). Make sure she urinates , sometimes it takes her a while. If her diaper needs to be changed, there are trash bags to dispose of the diaper. And diaper rash ointment to put over the area once thoroughly cleaned You will not need to cook. There will be puréed food to give her and snacks. You will serve her a glass of water and dinner and feed her. You will give her her evening medications with her snack. At the end of your shift about half an hour to 45 minutes before, please take her to the bathroom again. Afterwards you can put her in bed and make sure the railings are secure. You may play music in the background on Apple TV. You could help yourself to coffee or tea. You're more than welcome to talk on the phone while you work. It helps stimulate her a bit. She already has a bather come twice a week, An RN come twice a week and Chaplin. You are to make sure her linens are clean as well and fold her blankets when she is secure (strapped into) in her wheelchair I do not need any certifications. The ability to follow directions, maintain her clean and fed. You will never need to transport her anywhere outside of the apartment. If you speak Spanish that's a bonus. The APT is accessible via public transit by the 212/217 Hollywood/Wilcox stop and between the Metro Red Line Hollywood/Vine and Hollywood/Highland exit. We do not have parking for you but there should always be street parking and I am able to lend you her handicap placard. We have one cat and one parrot
