Personal Support Worker - South Windsor, Windsor - CAD$162.00/week

Description

About the Client:

We're seeking a compassionate caregiver for a warm, social senior living independently at home with her daughter in Windsor. She's cognitively sharp, remembers names well, and loves connecting with people. She enjoys crafts, painting, and good conversation. While she's quite independent mentally, she uses a walker for mobility and cannot walk long distances. She previously lived at a Chartwell retirement community where she thrived socially, making friends with staff and residents alike. She's now settled back into her own home and is working through organizing belongings after her recent move.

Responsibilities:

- Provide bathing assistance twice weekly, ensuring safety and dignity during showers
- Help organize and sort through household items as she continues settling into her home
- Engage in meaningful conversation and companionship
- Support light activities like crafts or painting
- Provide mobility assistance as needed with her walker
- Create a comfortable, supportive presence that respects her independence

What We're Looking For:

- Experience working with seniors who use mobility aids (walker/wheelchair)
- Patient, calm demeanor with excellent interpersonal skills
- Ability to make clients feel comfortable and at ease
- Reliable and consistent with scheduled visits
- Warm, positive energy that encourages engagement
- English-speaking
- Understanding that the home is currently being organized and may have clutter
- Respectful of client independence while providing necessary support

Schedule:





Two 2-hour visits per week, totaling 4 hours weekly. Preferred days are Monday, Wednesday, or Saturday, with visits starting around 11:00 AM. Flexibility with exact days is possible. The client's daughter lives on-site and will be available to facilitate introductions and provide support during the transition period. This is a long-term opportunity with potential to continue as care needs evolve.

Additional Considerations

Client lives in retirement home but will be moving back to her own house with her daughter in October. House is currently being organized and cleaned. Client uses a walker and scoots on it rather than walking properly. She cannot walk any distance and needs to sit frequently. Client is cognitively sharp with positive memory. She is very social, enjoys talking, crafts, and painting. She befriended staff at retirement home and gets along well with younger people. Client needs help sorting through belongings and organizing items as she is a pack rat with lots of possessions still being put away after the move.
