About who needs care: Recovering from brain surgery. Hobbies: trains, TV watching sports Lived alone prior to this so not sure about what he did all day. Should have realized something was wrong because he stopped taking care of himself and his house. He was diagnosed with/high blood pressure and not taking his meds even though I would remind him. Im sure he will be on meds and need someone to make sure he takes them. The hospital wants 24/7 care because they are concerned he will fall and open his incision. About the care needs: A male companion would be best. The patient is very frustrated and angry . Wants to go home and be left alone. This is the reason the hospital wont send him to a rehab center because he will fight with them about going home; this is what hes done in the hospital rehab. As stated before he is interested in trains. Has a room in his house devoted to them. Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, and companionship.
