About who needs care: My mother has Alzheimer's. She is no longer driving, cooking, or cleaning, and we are concerned that she's losing track of basic hygiene, like using soap and changing clothes regularly. My father, who is caring for her alone in New Braunfels, while I'm in Austin, has severe anxiety and is struggling to move forward with making decisions about the care she needs. I need. someone who can gently help my mother who doesn't really know her condition with keeping herself clean, well fed, properly clothed, and engaged with more human contact than she's currently receiving. He leaves her alone a lot with him in his office. She's sleeping too much, not eating enough, not getting enough exercise. I need someone who will engage her and ensure she's getting these basic needs met. She's fully verbal, can by quite sharp at times, and is generally pleasant. I want to establish a caregiver before she loses more capability. About the care needs: My parents are both former professors, my mother in early childhood and my father in physiology. They are left-leaning in their politics and secular, so someone with that background would be ideal. They are open-minded and anti-racist and LGBTQ friendly, so someone with any of those identities would feel welcome in their home. They would not appreciate having someone who pushed their religion or ideology on them. Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
