About the job

Mom has dementia. She can usually hold general conversations, but gets agitated/confused if alone, even for 5 min. It makes it hard to do much beyond sit with her. Her mobility varies. She is never stable, but can often walk with help. There are times her legs seem to lock, and she can barely be helped into a chair though. She used to be very artistic, so I'm trying to get her to do some arts and crafts... with little success. I'd be okay with someone sitting with her watching documentaries for a few hours while I sleep or clean, but if you could manage an engaging activity that would be amazing. We also have issues with showering. She often gets scared, and I am worried about supporting her in case she falls. We get her hair washed at a salon and are making due with washclothes to compensate. Periodic help would be appreciated.
