About who needs care: My mother has dementia (mid stage). She has a hard time remember things, there are times she has delusions, mild aggression when she gets confused. My dad has bone cancer (stage 4). He just started with his chemo-therapy again. Its hard for him to get around and do things due to his condition. He just needs assistance with food prep and dealing with my mother because its hard for him to deal with her at times when I'm at work. They both like music, puzzles, reading, playing chess, etc. I want my parents to be more active because all they do most of the time is sit in front of the TV when they don't have doctor appointments to attend. They need assistance to their appointments when I'm unable to assist. About the care needs: Looking for someone who is patient, understanding and has a good heart. Someone that is skilled in dealing with someone who has dementia and less mobile. A person who is between the ages of 30 and up. The person should have some interest in music, some who is creative to think of things for my parents to do. Some who can assist them during the day when I'm unavailable by taking them to the store or just take them to different places to get them out of the house. Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
