About the job

About who needs care: My grandmother is 90 years old and has diabetes, for which she takes medication and monitors her blood sugar levels regularly. She is also experiencing some slight dementia, which causes occasional forgetfulness. My mom is her primary caregiver, but she sometimes needs assistance when running errands. Grandma enjoys watching movies, especially comedies, and loves talking about her past. She's very spiritual, often listening to her church services, and stays in touch with her friends daily over the phone. Her ideal day involves having someone around to ensure she takes her medication properly and helps her avoid overeating. It's also important to keep an eye on her throughout the day to make sure she's comfortable and safe. About the care needs: Were looking for a patient, compassionate caregiver for my 90-year-old grandmother, who has diabetes and mild dementia. She needs someone who can give medication reminders, monitor her eating, and provide steady companionship throughout the day. She loves watching movies, TV comedies, and daytime shows, listening to her church services, and talking about her past. A warm, reliable caregiver who enjoys friendly conversation and gentle redirection would be an ideal fit. Experience with elderly care, basic diabetes support, and an understanding, calming presence would help her feel safe and comfortable. Someone who respects her routines, helps her stay connected with friends by phone, and can keep an eye on her when my mom is running errands would truly make a difference. We value kindness, patience, and someone who genuinely enjoys caring. Services needed include: transportation, meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
