About who needs care: Mom lives with my Sister, Cindy. Cindy has been dealing with health issues and is feeling totally overwhelmed. Mom's apartment is in the basement. Until the last few years she was able to take care of her living situation herself. In 2018 mom had a cerebral ventrical stroke which has left her with short term memory issues. Then the isolation of Covid limited doing things and some habits settled in that have increased the isolation. My sister is more overwhelmed than ever and neglect is more evident. Cindy does not seem emotionally or physically able to really care for herself or her home and has been unable to ask for help. Consequently Mom's care is falling apart. Resolving this issue is foremost in my mind to get the care mom needs. My brother and I do not live close enough to help on a daily basis. Mom wears hearing aids and still has a hard time hearing clearly. She needs a structured day like getting up by mid morning, taking meds regularly eating more than once a day and bathing frequently. She can bathe herself, just needs motivation to do it regularly. She used to do jig saw puzzles and has many. She played solitaire on a tablet constantly. However the tablet died and it has never been replaced it. These little things have been pushed down the road and are not getting done. I am hoping that getting help caring for Mom will help Cindy feel less overwhelmed so she can better care for herself. About the care needs: I would like to have a person who takes a personal interest in mom and can carry on meaningful conversations. It's a lot to ask, but this person needs to be able to bridge the gap with my sister and let her know that coming in and helping is NOT criticizing Cindy and her capabilities as a care giver, but giving her some relief from the burdens. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
