A kind person to sit with my father on Wednesday and Friday afternoons in Medellín
Unpaid or low-cost help with Mauricio for a few hours each week would keep our family afloat.
🇨🇴 Medellín, Antioquia, Colombia815 views
I'm Rosa, and I look after my father at home in Medellín. Mauricio has Parkinson's and should not be alone for long stretches. I work long days at the clinic, and the gap on Wednesday and Friday afternoons is the hardest part of my week.
What I need is someone calm and reliable to be in the house from about 2pm until 6pm. Mostly that means company, a cup of tea, lunch and a short walk if the weather is kind. No lifting and no medical care.
Mauricio loves cooking and will talk your ear off about it. I'm home before dark and will always leave the phone numbers of the doctor and a neighbor.
I'd like to meet you first with Mauricio present, and I'm happy to give a reference from my employer. If you have done care work before, wonderful, but kindness matters more.
I'll be so grateful for any help at all.
