We need hands-on care to take care of my loved one in Kannapolis. He has a tracheostomy, a foley cather, and an ostomy. He is experiencing "locked-in" syndrome. He doesn't talk and doesn't move but is completely aware of his surroundings and discussions. He is on a ventilator at night and oxygen through the day. Some housekeeping is involved. Personal care required includes grooming, emptying foley and ostomy bags, administering medications and feeding through a feeding tube. Duties include providing companionship, social interaction & assisting with physical therapy. Responsibilities also include assisting and attending during transporting to/from appointments. Prefer a non-smoker who is comfortable with pets. This is a home setting not a facility. Hours will vary from 10-30 hours /week day some overnight possible.
