Get a nursing home job to be close to your father during the pandemic

Older people have been the most affected during the covid-19 pandemic, since being the most vulnerable population, they have been forced to be in isolation, away from their loved ones and the things they like to do the most.

In the case of those who live in a nursing home or nursing home for the elderly, visits have been canceled until further notice, which is why British Nina Ambrose chose to get a job where her father with Alzheimer’s is cared for years, because she was not willing to abandon it.

The family is never abandoned

Nina left her job as a cosmetologist to volunteer at the Manor Lodge nursing home, where her father with Alzheimer’s is a guest. His job is to coordinate activities and events to brighten the day of everyone present.

His father is a retired truck driver who has suffered from this disease for 12 years. This has worsened in the last six months due to the pandemic, the confinement and the strict measures that keep him away from most of his family.

Dad deserves all the love in the world

Dad and I have always been very close.

I had never considered doing this job before, but now anything to see my father happy. I feel like I have a lot to give. I love making people happy and seeing them smile.

When Nina managed to enter the asylum and meet her father after five months without seeing him, the tears were inevitable. Although he does not always remember her, she is responsible for filling him with love.
