About the job

About who needs care: My mom has had cancer for almost around 10 years now and has mostly stopped treatment. She doesn't want hospice, especially since she still has the capability of moving around at home. Sometimes movement can be an issue, and I'd like for her to have someone to help her keep up with dishes and tidying up, as well as to help her cook. She is very sensitive to smell, so it's preferred that someone doesn't wear any cologne or perfume that has a strong scent, if at all. She gets nauseous easily. She speaks fluent English and is entirely coherent, so communication shouldn't be an issue. I live far away from her and I work. I just need someone who's able to get to know her and help her out as needed. About the care needs: Maybe someone who likes movies or shows. My mom watches a lot of TV. If they could be adaptable that would be great. My mom is sensitive to smell and taste so eating is a little different. My mom's communicative so she can explain what she needs or wants. My mom likes to talk, so someone personable who's willing to have a conversation. Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, and mobility assistance.
