My grandmother was recently diagnosed with dementia. She owns her home that she shares with her long time partner - who is experiencing care giver fatigue, and he needs some help. She is still pretty independent and doesn't need constant supervision (feel free to bring work, books, any personal activities you enjoy), but needs assistance with bathing, cooking (we will have food prepared), and prompting to use the restroom every couple of hours and to take medications in the morning. We want a companion to help her engage in activities throughout the day: walks around the house and garden, puzzle games, and just casual conversation (she likes to babble on about things, she loves to be read to, likes to dance, and to look through photographs). We would want help from 6 a.m. to 9pm, and these can be split into shifts amongst caregivers.
