Respite care wanted: a few hours a week with Mensah in Kumasi
Unpaid or low-cost help with Mensah for a few hours each week would keep our family afloat.
🇬🇭 Kumasi, Ashanti, Ghana476 views
I'm Theophilus, and I look after my father at home in Kumasi. Mensah has Parkinson's and should not be alone for long stretches. I work nights, and the gap on Monday and Wednesday 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 5pm. Mostly that means company, a cup of tea, lunch and a short walk if the weather is kind. No lifting and no medical care.
Mensah loves her grandchildren 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 Mensah present, and I'm happy to give a reference from my employer. If you have done care work before, wonderful, but kindness matters more.
If this is something you could do, please write to me through the offer button.
