About who needs care: My mother is diagnosed with early onset Alzheimers disease. She is forgetful, and has word finding difficulty. I am looking for someone to come in once a week to "clean" (vacuum, dust) while developing a relationship with my mother based on trust. Then I would like to have the ability to have someone help remind her to use shampoo when showering or to wear deodorant. She wouldn't allow that kind of help from the start. About the care needs: I would need someone who understands memory loss and the fact that mom can fake it well. I would also need this to be a female only as care might progress to helping shower in the future. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
