About who needs care: We believe he has dementia but refuses to go to the doctor. He has one son (my husband) and we live 3 hours away. We visit frequently but he spends way too much time alone. He has a few nieces/nephews nearby. Hobbies: genealogy (has many certifications), hummingbirds, weeding and he's very neat. He is a creature of habit and has a consistent routine. He doesn't like to rely on anyone for help, but he now needs it. Like every senior citizen, he doesn't want to go into a nursing home so we're trying to buy some time for him until we figure out next steps. About the care needs: he loves talking about family and different ethnic backgrounds. Not only did he do a great deal of genealogy, but He also specialized in the Scandanavian world. He also loved to travel. He's been all over the world and even swam with sharks at 80! The person should be a good conversationalist. He almost always finds something to talk about. Services needed include: companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
