About who needs care: My bride, Anita, has beginning/intermediate stage dementia. She needs someone to be available to prepare meals, shower and help with hygiene issues. The care giver would be staying in our home while her husband is traveling to the east coast.
We have a daughter who is a nurse practitioner approximately 20 minutes away who would be available to advise on care questions. About the care needs: My bride, Anita, does like to be read to at times. Anita is incontinent so the care giver will be assisting with changing adult pullups.
Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, feeding, and bathing / dressing.
