PART-TIME MORNING NURSE ASSISTANT NEEDED
35 years ago, our patient had an accident leaving her quadriplegic, paralyzed from the chest down. She is married and blessed with a close family and great friends. She is in need of a kind and cheerful female caregiver to assist me with ADLs (activities of daily living) – stretching, toilet assistance, showering, dressing, cooking & keeping the house organized.
This has proven to be EXCELLENT experience for those considering the medical field. We have former student caregivers who are now Registered Nurses at Providence Mission Hospital, UCI Medical Center, Providence St. Jude Hospital and more. Their experience with us has served them well!
