Hands-on Care Needed For My Mother In San Carlos

About who needs care: My mom has stage 4 endometrial cancer. She's been in treatment for a year, and is starting to decline. She has bad acid reflux and abdominal fluid, which is making it difficult for her to eat and drink. The evenings are the most difficult time because her nausea increases and some abdominal pain. She will often vomit late in the evening or in the early morning. My father has been doing a great job trying to care for her, but it has become too much for him. He has some memory issues and managing her growing list of medications has become overwhelming. It would be helpful if the caregiver could do some food prep for our dad. My mom needs help with managing medications, some bathing and dressing, getting in bed and help when she needs to vomit (clean up). She can go to the toilet and shower on her own now, but we anticipate she may start to need help with that soon. About the care needs: We are looking for someone who is kind and who is a good listener. My dad loves to joke around (in a playful way - it's never mean-spirited), so the person would need to understand that is his way of connecting with people. My mom is also very kind, but she is exhausted by this ordeal and sometimes her patience wears thin. Sometimes she gets discouraged and depressed. She needs someone to gently raise her spirits while still giving instruction and structure. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
