My mom has some memory deficits. She is able to do many things for herself (bathing, feeding herself). However she needs reminders/ encouragement to continue daily activities-bathing, eating, walking with someone to remain safe and return home. Need to prepare her meals and snacks. She enjoys gardening, walking, watching shows, attending church, and small talk. Ideal day is rising, dressing, breakfast, walking, some activity to keep her stimulated, lunch, walking, more brain activity, dinner, and eventually bedtime. About the care needs: No specialized skills. Does need to prepare meals, be able to take frequent walks, and help with brain-stimulating activities. Some transportation needed. Must be able to provide live-in care. Needs to be friendly, but soft spoken. Able to make others feel comfortable. Make friendly conversation.
