About who needs care: Hospice patient, can currently walk only with someone helping, needs help using bathroom, changing clothes, possible linens if accidents happen, getting food/drinks,
He can talk. He needs someone stern but very compassionate. He has just been placed on hospice and does not fully grasp he is at end of life care. He is frustrated that he can not go outside and work in his shop. So he is a grumpy do to not being able to move about like when he was better (only about 5 weeks ago). He is stubborn due to not being mobile and a little prideful as well thinking he can do things on his own when he can not. He can sit up on his own in bed and such at the moment. Based of the doctors this will decline in the coming weeks.
About the care needs: They must be stern, but gentle. Must understand where he is at mentally as he does not like being spoke to as a child, even though he does not seem to grasp he is slowly dying. Simone who does not get their feelings hurt easily as he can seem a bit rude or demanding due to his frustration. Someone with previous experience with a hospice patient would be best.
Services needed include: feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
