Caregiver needed
Good morning. I'm looking for a part time caregiver for my father with dementia to give my mother a break in Greenlane during the daytime. This could suit a nursing student or even an unqualified person albeit with some experience. Hours could be flexible but meaningful enough blocks so not simply an hour here or there. the bulk of the time would be spent sitting with him and keeping him safe if he is wobbly on his feet when he walks. If you let me know your past experience and pay expectations and happy to receive private messages or you can reply to this message with you contact number and I will call you. Thank you very much. Joseph
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
