About who needs care: Mom was diagnosed with vascular dementia 6 years ago. She is ls also legally blind and is confined to a wheelchair. Other than that, she is fairly healthy for a 91-year-old woman. She needs help with bathing and dressing. She basically spends most of her day watching TV, hanging out with family, or sleeping. About the care needs: Mom loves to laugh, so the caregiver should have a good sense of humor. Although Mom is petite, moving her in and out of bed/shower/wheelchair does require someone with a bit of strength. (One of her biggest concerns is falling down.) Services needed include: companionship, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
