Are you a compassionate and reliable elder care provider looking for a part-time opportunity in Parker, Colorado? Our family is seeking a live-out, part-time provider to help with our mother, Maxine (age 83). We are looking for a female companion, non-smoker to help keep our mother on a daily schedule especially with meal preparation. We were hoping for 3 late mornings per week, to start. (up to 10 hours per week). Depending on the progress of her diagnoses we are hoping to meet someone who will provide more care as time dictates.
Our mother was diagnosed with Parkinson's and the beginnings of Lewy Body Dementia. She is not in a wheelchair and continues to handle her own self-care (showering and toileting). Cognitively, she has good days and bad days with lots of trouble finding the words she wants. She lives with her husband Jack; but we are seeing that Jack is starting to need more daily help. It would also be nice for our mother to have someone else to talk with and possibly take her to stores and let her take her time shopping. She continues to mostly be able to care for herself but could use some help with meal planning and prep, staying on a schedule, staying on her medication schedule (although a timer helps with that now). Light housekeeping would also be helpful although she has always stuck to a rigid cleaning schedule.
My name is Tammy, and although I live in Ohio I am trying to help out my brother who lives in Parker by going through the initial work of finding a caretaker. My brother Adam will eventually be your main contact person, and he efficiently handles our mothers' doctors' appointments, medication changes, and finances. We also have a brother who lives in Austin Texas.
Thank you for considering working with our family to care for our mother.
