Part Time
My aunt is a highly educated women that is a retired ophthalmologist and former mountain climber. She is a very private person, and fiercely independent, until recently when she gets forgetful and panics due to her intermittent limitations. She is in need of someone that can drive her to the post office and complete errands such as grocery shopping, taking animals to vet, doctor appointments on and off island, someone that can escort her on walks in the neighborhood. My aunt can easily get frustrated when she forgets how to access her computer, and is hard of hearing so it is difficult to manage phone calls/voice mail. She needs someone that is calm, and able to help her when she panics about something she doesn't understand.
Hobbies include Exercise, caring for sick/elderly cats/dog, garden, photography, reading mysteries, feeding the local raccoons.
We need a Calm presence that is capable of talking my aunt down from a panic attack which occurs when she gets frustrated by her forgetfulness.
Parking available, Need caregiver to furnish car in order to give rides for errands and appointments.
My aunt started VIPP (an animal rescue shelter) which started in her home about 40 years ago - she still has 3 elderly cats and one dog
