About who needs care: She needs help with basic hygiene & needs to be encouraged to exercise both body & mind regularly. She has memory issues & doesn't have a good sleep schedule. She mostly sits in her chair & watches TV. Right now, her main two issues are incontinence & general confusion. She still does her own laundry, the dishes, & prepares small meals (sandwiches, soup, TV dinners, etc.), but when she tries to cook, she usually burns the food & sometimes the dish. She enjoys music (plays piano), crossword puzzles, Bible study, games, reading. About the care needs: Like most elderly with memory issues, she doesn't want to acknowledge them or that she needs help. So she can get impatient & sometimes ornery. I forgot to mention this on the needs page, but she likes to go out (shopping, to eat, etc.) but gets tired quickly. Also, she shouldn't be driving anymore. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
