About who needs care: My mother is 74 and very friendly and talkative. She has dementia that is progressing. She has her own house and also lives with her 86-year-old boyfriend. She needs help preparing her medication organizer and help taking her medication twice daily. She also needs help with physical activity like walking daily to help her back and hips. She is a great cook, but forgets some ingredients now. She needs motivation to move more and an ear to listen. About the care needs: A good fit would be someone who has great listening skills and is somewhat stern about doing what she needs to do. Patience is recommended. My mother used to paint and draw. Maybe someone with a knowledge of painting would help her get back to making that a hobby. Activity is also recommended to help ease her back and hip pain. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, and mobility assistance.
