About the job

About who needs care: My father recently experienced health setbacks which have limited his mobility and have also made him conscious of his vulnerability, which can sometimes make him anxious. He wouldn't need any clinical assistance, but would need reminders to take whatever medication might be due, companionship and support in case of a fall. He is interested in intellectual pursuits (reading, crossword puzzles). About the care needs: I don't know if the caregiver would need to share his interests as I described on the previous screen. The caregiver should be aware that he is very proud (e. g., would not want assistance changing for bed), and also has some prejudices. Services needed include: light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, bathing/dressing and mobility assistance. Please note that these will be overnight hours.
