About who needs care: Her back, knee and shoulders constantly ache. Metal is in back from 31 years old surgery and arthritis in knee and shoulders. She's able to walk with and without her walker and cane but rarely uses either when she should. Unable to thoroughly clean up herself after a bowel movement and needs help with bathing. I completely wash her body, apply lotion and pjs or clothing. Mainly pjs. She is set in her ways and has a little memory loss but no dementia, no Alzheimers. She can carry on a conversation. She cannot see that well but can see and has coloring and word search books that she rarely uses but should to keep her memory sharp. She is a fall risk and needs to wear her house shoes vs walking in footies on my wood floor. I am her daughter and she lives with me. I just need help with her bathing and dressing at times (TBD) during the week and someone to give me a break on the weekends in the evenings. I prepare her meals. About the care needs: They should kind, gentle and able to keep her company and help her with whatever is needed at hand in my absence. Able to help her in and out the tub but she is petite and I have a chair that makes it easier. Services needed include: companionship, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
