About who needs care: My mother is a kind 78-year-old who has hit a bit of a corssroads with her health. She has experienced two mild strokes in the past year and falls often. She walks carefully and fearfully with either a cane or a walker. She is going through a variety of tests to understand what is going on beyond the trauma of the strokes. In the meantime, the directive from her doctor is to follow a healthy diet, hydrate, move daily and consistently, have regular PT/OT and to avoid stress at all costs. She needs monitoring and assistance getting around. She needs assistance with staying on top of taking medication at the right time, getting to appointments (OT, PT and other medical appointments). She also needs assistance with meal planning and light prep. The person has to be friendly, kind and have a warm demeanor. About the care needs: Kind, friendly and warm. This person needs to hold the above characteristics but be directive and take charge. A proactive caregiver is needed. My mother is a curious person and loves movies.
