About who needs care: My dad is 76 and moved in with us 2 months ago after a fall. He has decreased ambulation and balance. His used a walker but needs someone next to him due his balance issues. He only walks short distance and tires easily. Needs assistance and guidance bathing. Usually gets up around 9 and will either get cleaned up at the sink or in the shower. Then will sit in his recliner a majority of the day. We are trying to encourage more activity but he is not motivated. He also has a foley catheter in place. About the care needs: We are looking for someone to help my dad get up in the morning, bathed and dressed. He does have a foley catheter so familiarity with foley care is needed. My dad moves at his own slow pace so a caregiver that is patient with him would be ideal. Also my dad has some mild confusion. I work as a nurse and just need help on days I work. My husband works from home and will be here in the house. FYI we have 2 larges dogs but will be upstairs with my husband. Services needed include: feeding, and bathing / dressing.
