About who needs care: She sits in a wheelchair most of the day and watches game shows or sports. (Her mind is clear; NO dementia.) Mainly needs help getting to a bedside commode day and night. Otherwise, she only needs help washing up (including brushing her teeth/dentures). Her meals are prepared in advance (by family) and only need heating in the microwave and brought to her. About the care needs: The caregiver should have a kind (joyful) personality. The client is an extrovert (retired elementary schoolteacher) but has become less outgoing in the past year. The caregiver must be a NON-smoker (even when not on duty), neat/clean, and willing to have light conversation with the client at times during the day. -A plus if the caregiver likes New Orleans Pelicans basketball :-) Services needed include: companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
