About who needs care: Still active, but needing some assistance with chores, companionship, and transportation to shop for food, do errands, and a weekly early evening out (less than 5 min from the house). About the care needs: A patient person to help with emotional needs. Need to be a licensed driver with a spotless record for short trips. A plus would be an interest in cooking, to help my mother prepare meals she likes. She is an accomplished cook. She is a swimmer, but her ability to swim is limited. Nevertheless, she goes to the Y, which is close to their house. She would need the ride. She is learning Italian online. She uses the computer for various personal and practical tasks. She has occasional problems with the use of the computer. My father is active in the morning and by about 2 p.m. takes a nap. He also uses the computer for things. He has no trouble with technical stuff. He has to do some chores around the house. They do some together, each does some separately, but each could use a hand. Ordinary stuff like laundry, loading the dishwasher, changing lightbulbs. Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, and companionship.
