About who needs care: My husband had a stroke in 2020 that left him right side deficient. He also had central pain syndrome due to the stroke so he can't be touched on the right side - head to toe. He also has stage 4 copd and is on oxygen 24/7. He moves, ever so slightly from the bedroom to the den to watch TV and to the restroom. I work 3 days in the office M, T, W. and now that he is getting more mobile, I need someone to come in, fix him lunch, make sure he has taken his medication & breathing treatment on the days that I work. I would only need someone for a couple of hours M T W each week. About the care needs: Someone that is calm and not loud and has empathy but has a tough skin. The person needs to be trustworthy. My husband is on some very strong medicines and under a pain doctors care for his Central pain syndrome My husband does not like to be coddled but he also is depressed about his limitations. He loves motorcycles and worked really hard and owned his own construction company until his stroke. I have 2 inside dogs but I will make sure they are kenneled and should not be any bother. They are small/medium and very much territorial. No specific skills. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, and light housekeeping.
