NEEDED:
PERSONAL CARE ATTENDANT
FOR 11-YEAR OLD GIRL!

Our daughter is a wonderful, lively, smart and humorous pre-teen.
Like lots of girls her age she adores High School Musical and Disney
stars Zack and Cody, Hannah Montana and Ashley Tisdale!

She is HIV+, very healthy, non-ambulatory, and weighs approximately 78
pounds. She has been approved for 18 hours/week of personal care
attendant help by MassHealth.

She is in need of some help with the following daily living activities:

* Toileting
* Bath
* Dressing for the day and getting ready for bed
* Hair care (she is African American – can you cornrow, braid, do flat
twists, or other cute styles?)

We will be home too, and will help with lifting and transfers.

She needs a female helper who loves to chat and to laugh, and who can
relate well to a pre-teen. A fluent English speaker is essential for
her comfort. You must have your own transportation. (We live in
Medford) Pay is $15.00/hour. Hours are negotiable, but will require
