Seeking care for my mother in her 70s. Services needed: transportation, light housekeeping, errands / shopping. Looking for someone with 3+ years of experience caring for seniors. Specialized care needs: CPR/first aid training, nursing experience. Female caregiver preferred. A little more about my mother: she can be pleasant, grouchy, outgoing, independent. She is a pleasant lady who simply doesn't have full autonomy anymore and it makes her grumpy. I would like to take a trip to visit my son in Nebraska and just need to know that someone would be looking in on her during the day at some point. I'm looking for someone who is patient, chatty, firm, strong, fond of pets. They would just need to understand not to take anything she might say personally. She has a tendency to say what's on her mind and not realize it can be off-putting. My mother has extreme spinal degeneration from a broken back Over 50 years ago. It's hard for her to get up and get moving quickly. She does enjoy a walk around the block with her rollator as long as someone is with her in case she falls because she is very unsteady on her feet. She's mostly fine in the house.
