$10 – $20/hr • One time • Starts Jun 1 • Reading, PA
About who needs care: My dad has dementia and cannot be left home alone at this point. My mom is his primary care taker. She needsassistance at times with him when she needs to go out to do things. He likes to watch tv, but due to his dementia needs to be encouraged to do other things. He needs to be told where things are, such as the bathroom and needs to be directed as to whether to sit down or which direction to face.
About the care needs: He typically does well with middle age to older women, but we haven't had a male caregiver, so I don't know how he would respond to them. He requires assistance with toileting and finding things and meal preparation.
Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing. ... more
