Seeking hands-on care near North Canton for my father in his 80s. One of your responsibilities will be helping with bathing. Preferences for a caregiver who is a non-smoker and comfortable with pets. It is a simple task, I just tre my acl and cannot do it. Basically, you lift him out of his bed and into a wheelchair and drive the wheelchair into the shower(it has a ramp and his handheld shower). Then drive him back down the ramp and get him dried and back into bed. I need shower time done in as little time as possible. He gets very anxious in the shower for some reason.
