About who needs care: We are looking for temporary care for my dad who will be coming to stay with us while his spouse is out of town for 2 weeks. The person would be alternating a 2 short weekdays starting this week, with another caregiver that will be alternating with weekends. We are going to Houston and picking him up tonight, so would not begin until sometime tomorrow or Wednesday. He is mobile with walker, just needing assistance for safety. He does need assistance with showers and personal hygiene. We would like the person to go with us to rehab and any fun outings we go on with him. My wife will be there most of the time and making all meals for you both and share in the companionship part of the time. We are trying to get outpatient rehab set back up here in Plano for him while he is here, to build strength and endurance. The person would need to commit to the full time of scheduled weekdays and will be provided a nice bedroom to stay in, but be willing to get up when he needs to go to bathroom. will have baby monitor in his room. He should sleep most of the night. About the care needs: A cheerful, responsible person that enjoys activity, good conversationalist, is good about being encouraging and motivating. He used to like rebuilding boat motors, but now more interested in visiting and watching TV. My wife will also participate during the day, and encourage him to do activities and visit... I will be assisting in the evenings after work. Services needed include: transportation, companionship, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
