About the job
Mom is 87 years old with early onset dementia. I have care for her during the week, but need coverage beginning on Fridays at 4 p.m. through Monday morning at 10am, to provide companionship, help with toileting, meals, moving around, medications, getting into bed. During the day she will watch the news or movies. She typically gets in to bed around 7pm, will need to use the bathroom around 9:30pm, usually sleeps well through the night, needs the bathroom at about 6:00-7 a.m. - will then get back in bed until about 8:30 a.m. She then uses the bathroom, brushes her teeth (assisted for balance), I brush her hair and bring her downstairs for breakfast. My mom recently lost her husband of 60 years so someone who is compassionate, gentle and loving, soft spoken, understands when she wants to just have quiet and not converse.
