About the job

I need a hands-on care provider with Alzheimer's / Dementia experience for my wife in her 70s. Some help needed in dressing her in the morning or putting her to bed at night. Must have experience assisting with feeding. Must prepare simple meals. Prefer a non-smoking caregiver; no-smoking while on duty. My wife is in the final stage of Alzheimer's. She is wheelchair bound and cannot speak. She can stand but you need to be able to lift her from a chair to a standing position and pivot to move her to a wheelchair or toilet. Petite, weighs ~120 lbs. Meal prep is preparing a simple breakfast of eggs, a smoothie for lunch, and a simple dinner which is often just reheating prepared meals or leftovers. During the day she is asleep or watching TV. You can read or watch TV while sitting with her. Hours and schedule are negotiable/variable.
