About who needs care: Ed is a frail diabetic with a prosthetic leg. His spouse (my sister) has been providing 24-7 care for him for may years, but she needs a break. Ed is very conversational with diverse interests. Mostly he needs someone to be with him in the house so his wife can run errands, go to the gym and have a life outside of the home. Assistance with grooming may be appropriate at some point. About the care needs: Ed can be grumpy and he doesn't think he needs help, so someone who is patient but also assertive. Services needed include: companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
