About the job

About who needs care: My grandfather has recently lost a lot of mobility with his history of back problems and recent hospitalizations. He has been discharged from rehab and requires help with bathing, toileting, and general care. If you could also help him get up and out of bed that would be a huge help! He weighs around 170 pounds so it does require strength to get him up. About the care needs: My grandpa is a jokester and likes to be funny, although as with most older people the jokes can sometimes be inappropriate so someone who can joke back would be perfect. He is a very sweet and kind man and gets attached to his caregivers. A caregiver who can give a good bed bath and provide basic care while chatting with him would be perfect! Services needed include: companionship, feeding, bathing / dressing, and mobility assistance.
