About the job

About who needs care: My mom, who is a "young" 86-year-old, had a complicated knee replacement in late May with a recovery that surprised us all by its slowness. She needs help in the AM with dishes, laundry, cleaning kitty litter, getting her breakfast/lunch - very simple things. About the care needs: someone who is a self starter, does not need minute by minute reminders of what to do, will see the glass table needs cleaning and simply do it. Someone who is positive and cheerful, although not an incessant talker, better at listening and sympathizing with someone who is struggling with physical pain. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, and light housekeeping.
