I am looking for a caregiver for my father, who is 92 years old with dementia and mobility issues. He lives with my 84-year-old mother. We need someone who is experienced with helping a dementia patient getting up and down from chairs, toilets, bed, and walking with walker. He needs assistance with all things. We are looking for someone who is calm, sweet, caring, strong, trustworthy, clean, and communicative. Mom is very clean and organized, so caregiver needs to clean as she goes, and keep things neat and tidy. She also like calm, sweet people who are easy to be around. Dad does not have any aggression or sundowning. He is even-tempered throughout the day, and sweet and easy going. We have a schedule to help with your day (see below for example). We are looking for 1 day/week with more days possibly in future to relieve current caregivers for appointments, sick or vacation days, etc. Hours are 6:30-6:00 p.m. If you're free and interested, please introduce yourself and let me know why you think you'll be a good fit.
