Hands-on Care Needed For My Mother In Fayetteville

About the job

About who needs care: My mother has Alzheimer's Disease, although she doesn't think she does). She has difficulty remembering to take her medicine, which is now locked up to avoid her taking too much. She lays in bed most days watching tv. She has been independent most of her life, so she doesn't think she needs assistance with anything, and won't ask for help. Her ideal daily structure would be to get up, brush her teeth, shower, get dressed and get out of her bedroom and be more active than what she is currently. Ideally, she would have at least 2 meals/day. Currently, she may have a cup of coffee as breakfast, yogurt or ensure as a snack as well as a piece of fruit. We would need someone to ensure she takes her am meds. About the care needs: A good fit would be someone who has an outgoing personality as my mom is a talker. Ideally, we would like her bp taken daily and weight weekly. She used to enjoy crossword puzzles, but now she mainly just watches tv or talks on the phone. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
