My grandmother is 2. 5 years short of 100. She has always been extremely clever, independent, and conversational. As a whole, she has won the aging game by maintaining her mobility and wit (despite some recent forgetfulness). I would like to see her age with dignity as she begins to require some assistance. We are looking for someone part time to ensure timely medication administration, assist with hygiene, and provide some companionship/conversation alongside occasional collaborative tidying of her very manageable one bedroom apartment. A key request will be oversight of 10 (mostly independent) showers monthly. It is important that my grandmother maintains a sense of choice and autonomy in the context of assistance. If handled well, I believe this help will both boost my grandmother's spirits and improve her comfort/life quality.
