We are looking for a kind and dependable respite carer from 18th to 25th August to support my father in his home in Roslin.

Duties include:
- Preparing a full cooked breakfast.
- Administering medication (pill pouches are used)
- Changing incontinence pads, pyjamas, and bedding as needed
- Washing and drying laundry (2–3 loads per day, mostly bedding)
- Preparing lunch (usually soup or a sandwich) and delivering it to him

- Light housework.
If this sounds like a good fit, I’d be happy to hear from you
