About who needs care: Kathy is very friendly and competent. She has a few different heart conditions, in congestive heart failure to sum everything up. She is on hospice, doesn't leave home due to health issues. I'm looking for someone who is able to do basic aid care, has catheter and needs emptying occasionally, helping with wiping and changing her and her bedside toilet, keeping breathing machine water levels refilled. Throwing an occasional load in the washer and dryer on the sanitary setting, they are very small loads with a sheet and a blanket, sometimes nightgowns and to please fold the blankets and sheets and hang the nightgowns up (very small amount). If able it would be wonderful to find someone that can cook a meal for her once a shift, we can get ingredients delivered and will supply all food. Light housework like sweeping. Other than that, Kathy loves playing uno, watching tv and the news, just having a fun chat to help get through the day. In the morning she loves to have water or cranberry juice packed to the brim with ice! Then maybe she wants to move to the recliner chair a few feet away to watch tv or play on the computer. After that maybe go to the bathroom and back to laying in bed. She is a simple woman and so friendly. Thank you! About the care needs: A friendly, outgoing personality would be an ideal fit. She loves a good laugh! No specialized skills needed. As for hobbies the most she does is crochet and wants to have a partner for uno or other board games. Just casual conversations to help get through the day with a friendly face. Preferably a woman caretaker. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
