About who needs care: Recovering from triple bypass, doing well but was in hospital for about four weeks. He is currently on dialysis 3 daysa week for acute kidney injury post heart attack. He was in good shape and very active prior to heart attack. I am his daughter. He needs help to be steady, someone to walk around the house or yard with and do shopping or to dialysis, some meal prep (breakfast and lunch), light household work to keep things tidy.
About the care needs: My dad is 81, very independent and driven to get better. He never had a doctor prior to the heart attack and is extremely lucky to have survived and be doing as well as he is. Someone that will work with him to regain his independence, help him understand his new normal of needing a regular schedule and with basic living activities. He seems to do best with male caregivers and women who are older and can relate to things familiar to him. He can go to the bathroom on his own but we stand outside the door. He needs a little help shaving and bathing, and help to make sure he eats, eats enough and take his meds.
Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing. ... more
