We are looking for someone that can come in in the afternoon and evening, help her with dinner, help her get ready for bed, help her get her into bed, etc. Mom likes genealogy, reading, coloring, etc. I need someone that can help her and how a has been trained to safely help her with transfers, sitting and standing, and be respectful of her religious and conservative beliefs. We are still trying to determine her needs at night. About the care needs: Mom is very quiet, she is very sweet and kind, so she needs someone that has a sweet and kind personality, and is not too brash. Mom used to loved to sew and cook and was very artistic. Mom had a stroke about 15 years ago and that did effect her ability to do the artistic things she used to love to do and has also effected a few other things like time of the day, day of the week, etc. Someone that has at least a CNA or that type of background to help her with personal care when needed and who has training to help her safely move. Mom needs someone that can help her feel safe in her own home and will be respectful of her religious and conservative views. Services needed include: mobility assistance.
