Seeking Full-time Senior Care Provider In Woodland Hills

About who needs care: In an ideal day for my 70-year-old year old mother with onset dementia, diabetes, and limited mobility, mornings could start with a gentle wake-up routine, followed by a nutritious breakfast that aligns with her dietary needs. After breakfast, a caregiver might engage her in light exercises or stretching to promote mobility, followed by cognitive activities like puzzles or reminiscing about past experiences. After a mid-morning snack, they could enjoy a calming activity such as reading or listening to music. The rest of the day could include lunch, some social interaction with family or friends, and a relaxing afternoon with hobbies like painting or gardening, all while ensuring she stays hydrated and comfortable. Regular breaks and a consistent schedule would help her feel secure and engaged throughout the day. About the care needs: The ideal caregiver for my mother should have experience with dementia care and knowledge of diabetes management. They should be patient, compassionate, and able to communicate clearly. It's important that they can assist with physical mobility safely and adapt to her changing needs. Reliability and trustworthiness are essential, as the caregiver will play a key role in her safety and well-being. An engaging personality that encourages interaction and maintains her dignity is also important for her emotional support. Services needed include: feeding, and bathing / dressing.
