About who needs care: My father with middle stage dementia, looking for "as needed" help when I am unable to be with him. For example, when I was out of town, he called and wanted his clothes washed and did not know/ remember how to operate the W/D. Or he likes to go out to eat once a week which isn't feasible when I am working or out of town. About the care needs: Preferably a male or a female with a "tom boy" personality that is able to joke around with him and understand his "country" humor. Someone that understands the process of dementia and how ppl with dementia think and act. Someone who is great with communicating with me, the daughter and caregiver, providing updates and info on how the day went. Services needed include: transportation, and companionship.
