Otherwise he does have a bedside commode. He can not shower himself and would need this done about twice a week. We have a shower chair and removable shower head. A wheelchair and seated walker are also available. About the care needs: Someone easy going and kind. Someone that is gentle and a good listener. He likes to stay pretty quiet.
