You will be transferring her, for example, from bed to wheelchair and into the bathroom. Catheter experience is wanted but training will be provided if needed. She is active, and with your assistance will need to perform stretches and exercises given to her by a physical therapist. You will also be assisting with transportation to therapy/doctor visits. Mrs. Russell has a van with a wheelchair lock in system that is available for your use. She has a Permobile motorized wheelchair with lots of functions, you will need to learn how to use this so being technologically savvy is a plus.
