Hi,
No, I don't think it to be proper and practice to make an aortic valve and hip joint replacement person to take care of a paralyzed patient with infectious infection for the danger of infection and over stress of physical exertion.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
