About who needs care: Dementia is the main concern right now. He also has other health issues that he takes medications for. He is a fall risk as well, so he needs to be watched and assisted, even though he can walk pretty much on his own. He does have a walker at home too if needed. He usually loves to relax and watch TV if he can focus on it right now?? He also loves to sit outside, as long as the weather is nice. He loved to golf and golfed for years, but now he is unable to. He has arthritis and back pain issues and takes prescribed pain medication for it. About the care needs: Personality wise, I would say someone who is bubbly. My husband always loved talking to people, but he needs someone now who is good at redirecting and getting him to do what you want him to do without him feeling that he is pushed or being forced. I, his wife will be present most of the time now, I have to take a leave of absence from my job and eventually most likely quit now. My husband tends to be resistant towards me at times, which is why I need assistance during the day and night. He tends to listen better to other care takers. He can be very stubborn at times. Services needed include: transportation, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
