About who needs care: My mother has localized advance tongue cancer and cannot eat, drink or take medication by mouth. She has a feeding tube which is her only method to receive medication and formula feeding. This would require a caregiver with prior experience with this type of care or someone who can learn quickly. It would be ideal for the caregiver to help her out of bed to engage in mild physical activity like walking. About the care needs: Someone who is very patient and genuinely care for their patients. My mother cannot speak which makes it difficult for people to communicate with her. We need a caregiver that is kind and loving. They must also be familiar with g-tubes/feeding tubes and care administer liquid formula and administer medications through this route. Services needed include: feeding, and bathing / dressing.
