About who needs care: My father is 77 years old and suffers from Parkinson disease. He doesn't have much structure to his day, living on his own independently. Requires more so nursing duties with regards to foot care as bending over is difficult. Requires someone to assess him weekly in case he falls, as he is a fall risk, and regular blood pressure taking is imperative. About the care needs: Ideally Russian speaking individuals however my father speaks English clearly. Hobbies such as reading and crossword puzzles perhaps. My father is very intelligent but difficult in terms of letting others help him as he is very independent, so a caregiver with nursing skills that is somewhat easy going and not too pressuring. However one that can get the job done assisting with hygienic maintenance. Caregiver that can assess and reassess his conditions and alter approaches to build quality of life. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
