We are needing care at home for my Mother. She is early on in Dementia/Alzheimer's. Her husband of 52 years recently passed away. My youngest her sister and I are now in charge of our Mom's care. She resides in Frankfort, Illinois. We do have an older black lab in the house. He is very friendly. We will need help 3 days a week and probably more as we progress. We need help with companionship, reminding our Mom to take meds and to eat. We will need light cooking and cleaning, driving to and from appointments, helping our Mom shower, and reminding her to feed the dog. Our Mother is 85, kind and gentle and a bit fragile. We need someone who is also kind and gentle, but familiar in dealing with dementia. She does get confused and frustrated. We need someone with patience. Non smoking house.
