About the job

About who needs care: Dementia, bed ridden, needs everything done for her. Daiper, lifting up in bed, pills, food if im not here. I am her power of attorney and full time caregiver. I have been taking care of her 24/7 round the clock for over a yr straight at that pace for free. I am breaking down physically from doing so and mentally and need outside assistance. Right now I am sick and I can barely move and am doing the bare minimum. So a daiper change in the morning amd at night. I think I can manage afternoon. I can give pills and food may ask u to get or assemble something. I wont ask you to cook. Just need some extra help. And sometimes I cant leave her to go to a doc or grocery. So I dont go or hair apt. Or pick up my pills at family fare. So need someone here or someone to stop on the way. I am flexible and will work with you. About the care needs: Should know CPR and choking procedures, lift orocedures needs to be gentle as she had broken back and osteoperosi. She cant lift arms they are bony and set crooked from being broken from fall. Mainly needs daiper changes and given food and pills but most of the time I will be here. And pulled up in bed and maybe lifted out of bed eith hoyer lift once in a while. Maybe every other day or every 2. Depending on how she feels. Just need someone who knows what they are doing, trustworthy, and honest amdndown to earth. No frills here! Very straight forward. And she cant hear so you have to talk loud and slow enough for her to process. Need someone with a thick skin. No sensitive people. Someone who can roll with the punches. So to speak. Services needed include: feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
