About who needs care: My mom needs someone to be close by in case she needs help, while I am working away from home. She is pretty independent but is a fall risk and tries to do more than she should. She loves listening to gospel music and is friendly and outgoing. She has chronic pain and is on oxygen. She stays in her room a lot but it would be great to have someone who will encourage her to do things she enjoys. This is a first for us and are exploring our options. My work schedule is flexible, so I am able to take her to doctors appointments and run errands. I just need help balancing work and care. About the care needs: Caring and compassionate, I try but can have a short fuse. Our goal is to keep her home with us but we may need assistance from her insurance company to make in home care affordable. Services needed include: companionship.
