Live-in Home Care Needed For My Loved One In Valley Stream

About who needs care: My brother is mentally disabled with autism. He does have some independence but needs supervision and help with preparing his meals, and general house tasks like taking out garbage, and making sure he gets on his bus to his day program that he goes to 5 days a week mon-fri. He can prepare his own breakfast and knows how to bath himself and does not require any assistance to walk. He does not talk much but will answer when prompted. and overall is very friendly and respectful and loves his routines. His hobbies are relaxing when he gets back from his program by watching tv, he likes walks, and he enjoys movies night and reading simple books. For the weekdays the ideal would be to make sure he gets on his program van around 7:am-8:am. At 3-4pm when he gets back he wants to relax change his clothes and have fruit or snack waiting for dinner which is typically about 6-7pm. After that he likes to clean up after himself (very important to him) and he washes dishes and is ready to watch tv before bed at 10:Pm. Weekends since he is home he typically likes to relax indoors as well but does not mind spending one of the weekend days going for a walk in the park. He prefers to be home since he is very active with his program on weekdays so weekends he likes to relax at home. He also likes to do his own laundry and he enjoys someone who can cook rice and chicken often and store it so he can share it out with any other foods like pasta lasagna mac n cheese ect (he *does Not like pets (cats or dogs) and he *does Not eat (beans and peanuts). About the care needs: *Female middle aged- senior types someone like a mother figure is a plus. *Skills would only be to have some ability to cook rice and other general meals like chicken, pasta, mac cheese, veggies, healthy but tasteful food. (does not need to cook everyday. I typically buy in bulk and I make big dishes then freeze or store in the fridge. *It would be good if the aid: - has experience with children or people with autism. - is kind hearted and overall patient and gentle. -can calm him if he feels upset or anxious (autistic behavior sometimes) -has a respect for the neighborhood , we live on a quiet block and neighbors are very nice , no loud music or cars activity making a scene. -can respect his privacy sometimes he wants to walk around the home and watch tv in the living room he is not confined to his room all the time and I want him to feel free to enjoy his home. -can follow his lead and understand his routines. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, and companionship.
