About who needs care: I'm rather isolated in my home. Mild forgetfulness, frail, with restricted movement from arthritis. Could use light housekeeping 2 days week. Maybe accompany me Tues & Thurs to Senior Center for lunch & social interaction. I take care of myself for now, but may need additional assistance before long. I've fallen twice in last 3 months, needed 6 weeks recoup last time, which has left me very weak. I Need exercise! I'm not independent enough to move to over 55 apartments, but not disabled enough to move to assisted or independent living, plus that is SO expensive, would like to wait few years until definitely needed. Would love nice caregiver/companion maybe 3-4 hours twice per week, depending on price & availability. I'm still investigating, checking out all my options. My children would have to approve, at present they want me to move to assisted or independent living, where I could have companionship & at least 1 meal 5 days per week, but I'm hesitant, hate to spend all that money until absolutely needed. Thank you! About the care needs: Personable, friendly & easy to talk to. Kind & considerate, Christian would be a plus. Likes dogs (I have an old small dog, near end of life.). She doesn't need walks, just let out couple times a day. Good sense of humor would be helpful! She might occasionally accompany me shopping, & as I said, need to interact with others, so a people-person. I don't have any hobbies. Don't need any special skills, although she might cook an occasional meal, if needed. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, and light housekeeping.
