About who needs care: My sister is living in an Independent Living facility, but really belongs in Assisted Living. I'm Looking for someone to go with her to doctor appointments, and to do shopping for her. She has some level of dementia, & is very stubborn. She has atrial fib, but for her age is in pretty good physical shape. Does NOT need cooking; gets that in her facility. She has a lot of doctor appts, & with poor memory never knows the results of the appts. The facility is trying to work with her re: body cleanliness and laundry but she needs "someone" at doctors' visits, etc. I have been doing it for her for 6 years. I'm burned out. And I live some 120 miles away. No relatives live near her. About the care needs: A patient person. As I said, she is very stubborn. At this point, she does not have many interests. Says she reads her Readers Digest, but really doesn't. Spends most of her day watching 1950s TV programs. Just visiting her occasionally and definitely accompanying her to doctor visits & reporting back on those would be a tremendous help. Services needed include: transportation.
