I was caring for my 84 yr. old Client in her house, and noticed she was becoming ill. I informed her son, who then took her to the Hospital, and they recommended that she stay in the Rehab part of the Nursing home until they felt she's able to function more on her own with assistance. She had become like an important family member to me- almost like a 2nd Mom. I took her out every opportunity that I could so she could enjoy herself and feel more in control of what she was doing. We enjoyed walks in the Parks and around the Lake if she was able to walk more, and I took her on outings to get Coffee, donuts, and also Choc. Shakes. I also made some healthy foods for her to eat, as she has a "sweet tooth". I did light cleaning and her wash so that she'd have nice, clean clothes and accessories to wear daily. I treated her house as if it were my own, as I was there more often than in my own place, and don't enjoy being in a dirty house. Unfortunately, my client recently passed away in Jan.
