I'm looking for hands-on care for my father in his 70s. He is undergoing chemo & radiation currently for bladder cancer. He has been very weak & had a few falls. My mother is overwhelmed & at 75 not able to physically help if he falls again. We're looking for some help preparing meals; any experience with preparing high calorie weight gaining meals is a plus. May need assistance cleaning or changing wound drains. May need assistance getting out of bed, or up from sitting. Duties include providing companionship and social interaction. Cleaning up after meals & maybe striping bed & starting a load of laundry if an accident happens. Preferences for a caregiver who is CPR / first-aid trained. We are bus accessible (2-3 block walk). I don't anticipate any need for you to drive him anywhere.
