Part Time
Seeking care for my mother in her 70s. Services needed: bathing / dressing, meal preparation, medication prompting, mobility assistance, transportation, light housekeeping, errands / shopping. Looking for someone with 7+ years of experience caring for seniors. Specialized care needs: support for memory care. Female caregiver preferred. A little more about my mother: she can be pleasant, grouchy, outgoing, independent. Very independent but needs someone who can be pleasant when she's confused or obstinate. With the right caregiver she would be very friendly. Needs someone who is not shy but not overbearing either. I'm looking for someone who is patient, strong, fond of pets. My mother enjoys gardening, sitting outside, taking, watching tv, playing with animals. She enjoys painting also. I need someone who can come over to my house each morning and get her up and dressed. Plus make and feed her breakfast. This person will also will be home with my college and high school aged kids who will take care of themselves and be doing their schoolwork. I'm thinking I would need someone M-F 9-12. Also will need someone who would be able to work additional hours as needed. You must understand and be patient with an Alzheimer's patient.
