About who needs care: This is for my mother in law. She is 64 years old and has been diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer. Unfortunately, it has metastasized and we fear she wont be with us much longer. She previously had an aid come into her home and help her around the house but she stated that they weren't as helpful as she needed. She need someone to help her with some chores and help her change her colostomy bag every day. She is barely 100 lbs. and is declining faster than anticipated so she will eventually need a higher skill level of care. About the care needs: Tough skin is a requirement. Norma is a jokester but her jokes can be rough sometimes. She is wary of strangers at first so someone with a bubbly personality is always welcomed. The care personnel will need to know or be willing to learn on how to changer an Ostomy bag & how to give a bed bath as Norma is sometimes bed confined due to pain level. Also a person who has some understanding with dementia patients would be appreciated due to the fact that Normas mother is currently living with her and she tends to be confused around the evening time. Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
