About the job

We need companion care to take care of my husband in Iowa City. Important - experience with managing and administering medication is required. Responsibilities include feeding. We're looking for someone to provide companionship. Preferences for a caregiver who is a non-smoker and CPR / first-aid trained. My husband has Parkinson's with Parkinson's dementia. He is mobile, with a walker, but has down days where he may need help getting around, including with the bathroom. His dementia is primarily in focus, logic, and following directions/next steps. He has hearing aids, but still has trouble hearing, which could be either sound or that it take a while for him to 'process' what is being said. He likes to play cards, and occasionally yahtzee... but not keen on board games.
