My 87-year-old mom is a fall risk and uses a walker at home. She needs help with meals, hydration, and encouragement for physical activities. Duties include taking her to appointments, assisting with bathing (preparing the shower, drying off), dressing, and changing her brief. While independent, she needs support in these areas. Mom has severe depression and Alzheimer's dementia but remains aware and lucid. Her mood can shift, and she may become forgetful. She is also materialistic and particular, requiring a caregiver with a strong backbone. We are looking for someone who has good attention to detail, can communicate effectively in oral & written communication, and who is not afraid to follow guidelines in place and is comfortable saying No. A schedule and checklists are posted to assist with her care.
