About who needs care: She lives in a "Share" House. She is withing walking distance of a super market and other things. Her dinners are provided with the house. We're looking for someone to check in on her throughout the week to: (1) help her take her medications (2) help her keep track of and schedule doctor appointments (3) help her find her phone (4) drive her to errands (5) help her put up schedule reminders in her room where she will see it. (6) maybe eat dinner with her (7) help her with phone and computer, if needed. she can walk and function on her own, but her memory is getting worse. She calls my sister 5 times in a row, asking the same question each time. We're trying to hire someone that can take my sister's place. If my mom knows she has someone coming every other day to help her out with stuff, she will hopefully stop obsessively calling my sister. She also doesn't like the people in Share House, and avoids them, so being someone she can talk to and eat a meal with would be nice too. (FYI - my mom is very sweet and easy to get along with - she doesn't like her housemates because they argue non-stop about everything) About the care needs: 1. someone she enjoys talking to. 2. someone who is organized. Each visit, you should create a poster she can easily see for her to-do items until your next visit (along with when your next visit it). Someone organized who can create a visual system for helping my mom remember what she needs to do and keep track of dates would be idea. 3. my mom likes knitting and gardening Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, and companionship.
