About the care needs: Someone who has experience working with seniors with cognitive decline, who is gracious and compassionate and friendly. Someone who can read people and know when they are overwhelmed and need some space. Someone who will make her feel like she has "control", but also can be persuasive in helping Mom do what she needs to do. Mom likes to talk about old movies, broadway musicals, books, and travel.
