About who needs care: Diagnosed with Vascular Parkinson's and Dementia. Needs to use a walker at all times but sometimes gets upset with doing so. Has great difficulty going to the bathroom. Wears pull-ups, but doesn't want to go in them. Needs help so he pees into urinal bottle and help getting on/off toilet and wiping for bowel movements. Can feed himself but needs things cut and sometimes has great difficulty getting food from plate to his mouth. About the care needs: Jerry, my husband would need someone who is firm but very kind and compassionate. Someone who is perhaps interested in trains, cars, and science events would probably help so the 2 of them can converse. Also someone who isn't bothered by the same question 50 times (due to his dementia). Services needed include: feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
