About who needs care: My grandmother has alzheimer's, so she needs a companion 24/7. My sister takes care of her every day/night and I would like to give her a night out per week to spend time with her husband. My grandmother loved to paint, make jewelry, and socialize when she was able to. An ideal day for her right now would not involve going out and about, as it is tough on her body. Having somebody who can watch shows with her, talk to her, give her her toys, and heat up a pre-made meal for her would be perfect. To care for her it is important that you can help her move between the living room and bedroom so that she can go to bed (she is around 95 pounds and can walk a bit, but needs assistance). About the care needs: I'm looking for a gentle individual with a big heart. You don't need any specific skills or hobbies, just a sense of compassion. A lot of this job is just being there physically and being willing to interact without expecting her to interact back. Services needed include: feeding, and bathing / dressing.
