This includes hoisting out of bed, toileting, showering, dressing, passive leg stretches, making me glam to face the day and getting my breakfast / lunch (which is my main meal).
Some housework is included. No heavy lifting involved, but this a physical job. Full training will be given. The position starts in early July, but there may be some flexibility. Oh, and by the way my husband lives with me! We are both retired, but always busy!!
Starting rate in the vicinity of $25 p/h. I am funded by MoH. through Manawanui.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
