Details:
As my Personal Assistant, you will be required to help me with morning routines so I can get ready for the day. This includes help with washing, support with getting dressed, assistance with putting on my lymphedema socks, and on Fridays, a hair wash. I have African type hair and need someone who is willing to learn how to care for this hair type, although you will not be required to style my hair.
I will also need your support with preparing and making meals daily, which mainly consists of peeling and chopping vegetables. I have difficulties completing those tasks due to problems with my hands.
