About who needs care: Dad just lost his son-(His live in caregiver) of 15 yrs unexpectedly a few weeks ago, the rest of us siblings-(4 of us) have stepped in and doing our best to care for him taking turns each day. We are all in our 60s and have ailments ourselves and cant really do this everyday and every week! Someone needs to be there when he wakes usually between 9:00-10:00 he gets up and dresses himself pretty well, someone has to get him his coffee and breakfast and AM pills then he usually goes in and sits and watches TV most of the day and reads his daily newspaper! Meals on wheels brings him his lunch but he usually doesn't eat it so well make him a sandwich or a light lunch. At dinner time whatever is made for him needs to be cut up, most of his meals do, then he feeds himself just fine! His bedtime is 8:00 which he needs assistance with. Hes been fine to be left alone at night he does have life alert by his side and there are cameras throughout the house to monitor him! About the care needs: Probably a male that will just sit and listen to his stories of his life long past! Someone who likes to watch TV-(Old war movies etc) Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
