About who needs care: My father is recovering from a recent traumatic brain injury. As a result, he suffers with some cognitive challenges, including significant language impairment (mixed speech aphasias,) but is otherwise a very physically and mentally active 65-year-old. He enjoys working with his hands, creative projects and hopes to continue his work in water purification.
About the care needs: Humor, wit and patience are a plus! My father is very independent but requires supervision while re-adjusting to daily life after an extended hospital and rehabilitation stay. He is mobile, but could use help with meal preparation and ensuring he takes his meds, in addition to companionship.
Some overnights may be needed during my work travel since he currently requires 24/7 supervision. Willing to accommodate the right caregiver(s') hours!
