About who needs care: My mom is 74 and has Alzheimer's. She currently lives with my sister, but my sister works a full-time job. My mom showers and dresses herself but has a fear of being alone. She will not get herself something to eat or drink if no one is home. Would like to have someone come in from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday thru Friday to start. Hours will increase when we see how she progresses over the next few weeks. About the care needs: My mom is born and raised in the Bronx. She has a sweet but strong personality. She will need someone who can be kind but firm with her. She likes to go for walks but struggles when it comes to reading or doing puzzles.
