About who needs care: Mostly bed ridden and needs help with transfers to toilet/commode, chair. Sometimes needs help with toileting accidents. Needs help getting dressed. Showers a couple times a week with help and needs help with everyday hygiene. Light housekeeping such as laundry and keeping kitchen clean. Maybe some meal prep. Some help with grocery shopping. Currently in skilled nursing but trying to get him home with my mother, who cant do as much for him as she used to. May have to perform breathing treatments 2x a day. Not familiar with what's involved and the equipment necessary. Should get instructions from his doctor. Need someone who is strong but gentle and wont get offended if he gets angry due to his confusion once in a while. He's not a large man, on the short side but can get feisty but that's mostly due to pain in his arms and legs. If you speak some Ukrainian, that would be a big help although he can speak and understand English. Would also help if you carry a liability insurance policy but may not be a requirement. Would also like references. About the care needs: Of course, a caring personality is important as well as knowledgeable about elderly care. A background in nursing, STNA or an EMT is a plus. My father used to love to fish and garden as well as travel domestically. Services needed include: feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
