About who needs care: We are seeking a compassionate companion for our grandfather, who is bed-bound and living with dementia as well as the effects of past strokes. He currently resides in an assisted living facility, and we are looking for companions to be with him during times when family members cannot be present. The ideal candidate would spend quality time with him, engage him in enjoyable activities, and keep him entertained - watching sports is one of his favorite pastimes. This role also involves acting as his advocate, closely observing the care provided by the facility, and regularly updating the family on any notable issues or care gaps to ensure his well-being. About the care needs: The ideal candidate should have experience working with dementia and stroke patients and, ideally, an interest in sports. We're looking for someone who is kind, patient, and has a good sense of humor. More than anything, he hopes for a friend to keep him company and an advocate to help ensure his basic needs are met. Services needed include: companionship.
