Full Time
About who needs care: Very forgetful. Recently lost husband after 60yrs of a beautiful marriage; suffering from broken heart and loneliness. Is very reluctant to any change.
Loves to do crossword puzzles, and crocheted, and watch the wildlife outside.
About the care needs: Patient and understanding would be key. My Mother is not overly engaged in anything, takes on nothing new, is resistant to any change. She wants to continue to live in her own house but has become prone to more and more forgetfulness which impacts every aspect of her life. She has also recently fallen a few times which greatly increases the risk factor of her remaining alone; remaining alone is no longer an option. There are no specialty care needs other than caring for and being available should something go wrong as she continues to age and become even less capable.
Hobbies/special interests: my mother does crossword puzzles and crocheted, and enjoys watching the wildlife outside. She is a German immigrant and is more fluent in German although speaks and understands English well.
Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, companionship, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
