Please don't be rough with her or anything because that will be reported. Please be respectful of all her house rules but they cant be shy either because she is a little intense so they need to be able to assess each situation accordingly. Sometimes my grandma is forgetful so please beware. Always make sure she takes her medicine right when you walk in the door otherwise she will never take it. Please keep chocolate and orange juice handy or nearby because she is a diabetic so that helps if she has an episode. The care giver needs to be able to have a little arm strength to help in certain situations like getting her up. Preferably a female caregiver as well.
