Lives alone in a single floor home in the same development as us (1 mile away), but we work outside the home and need help caring for her during the day and checking on her.

Undergoing treatment for multiple and endometrial carcinoma that are not causing hair loss or nausea, but tiredness. She does not like early mornings, and doesn't do much during the day other than watch tv. Her brother comes to visit her about 1 day a week to visit her. She no longer cooks or cleans for herself. We have a monthly housekeeper, but need help making sure she eats, takes her meds, and would like to encourage her to get up and dressed everyday. Lots of days lately have been all day in a robe and slippers. About the care needs: She is very private and can be quiet at times. She is kind. Someone that is calm, kind, and can gently motivate her would be best. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, and companionship.
