About the job

About who needs care: diagnosed with multiple scoliosis which led her to be in wheelchair permanently so no mobility in her lower body. she still talks, eats, uses ipad and tv using her hands and arms just fine. she does have her bad days, sometimes due to the weather that she lacks in her upper strength but only sometimes. she also has been spending more time not being mobile in her wheelchair and chooses to stay in her recliner most days when exercise or appointments aren't scheduled those days. she's very pleasant to be around and soft spoken too. she likes her bird watching out her windows through the house at her birdhouse posted up around there property. she enjoys her family a lot which needs to happen more often with visits. she doesn't have a very hard structure but all her basic necessities of life like hygien, hydration, meals and staying clean and up on taking her medicine is what matters most. we would like someone to also be good with basic cleaning in between care for her if possible. About the care needs: I'd like for my grandmother caregiver to be selfless when she in with her, patient and understanding. Someone who loves being a caregiver that wont be easily annoyed or who gets frustrated easily too. They need to truly feel that they are comfortable, its a good fit for them as well and wants to be my grandmothers caretaker so they show dedication, lots of care and support and can motivate my grandma to keep her from falling into a depression state which I'm sure isn't too hard for people to do so dealing with this health state. They would only need to be familiar with dos and don'ts for diagnose ms patients. I don't want them coming into this thinking its going to be one way and its not. Or they end up making my grandma upset because they weren't prepared for this type of health disability. I already have a written up personal training breakdown for whom ever does have an interest and there isn't anything that is too much that needs special skills. my grandma is simple and deserves the world to make her feel cared for supported and happy. I hope there interests are taking care of ones in need and to give back to there community. Also anything nature, animals, birds, crafts and baking is a plus. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
