Looking for male support worker for my dad.
Hi everyone, my dad (61) was last year diagnosed with wernikes korsikoff. He has severe brain damage affecting his short term memory, on bad days his memory is 10 seconds, on good days it’s 10 minutes. He is currently living in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne and I am after a suitable carer for him. Preferably male, Aussie or English as first language (his old school and has trust issues since his injury). He currently has a pretty good package from the NDIS but I am concerned his current carers aren’t able to fully help and understand him. As said previously, he has trust issues and would prefer someone who can take him fishing, take him on meaningful outings, to the footy etc. think proper bogan. If anyone can point me into the right direction into finding a suitable candidate, please let me know. I am desperate and I don’t know where to look.
