About who needs care: My grandfather who is 81 has had a stroke back in 2019. He's had a pacemaker put in for a fib and has COPD and his eyes aren't the best. He likes to say what doesn't hurt doesn't work lol He is a stubborn old man and thinks he knows best but his health is declining and I can see it everyday. His mobility isn't the greatest and he's always weak. He doesn't have any actual hobbies he sits in his chair and "naps" most the day or watches t. v besides getting up to go to the bathroom he loves his chair. I've tried working with him on getting him more active but he's just not interested in any of it. What we need is someone to just come sit with him while I'm at work and make sure he doesn't fall and he gets his lunch. I live with him so I do the cleaning and actual cooking and things it's just becoming harder to leave him to go to work as I'm afraid one day I'm going to come home and find him on the floor. About the care needs: Someone who is fairly quiet and doesn't mind sitting in silence and is okay with just sitting there while he naps. He's okay with talking sometimes but he just prefers everyone to leave him alone as he says lol and someone who isn't afraid to make sure he's okay and asks him frequently (like every hour or so) if he needs anything. Definitely needs to have strength just Incase he needs someone's arm to help him walk to the bathroom and back to his chair. Services needed include: transportation, companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
