Father is recovering from several infections and 4 hospital stints since March 1st. Care giver is wanted to help with bathing and to lightly help with feeding which means mostly cutting his food for him. Play word find games. Bring him water and/or ginger ale and make sure he is drinking. Remind him to do some gentle exercises such as lifting his arms over his head 10 times slowly, this can be done three time a day. He is not stable on his feet, so you will need to guide him a bit while he walks or help him transition from his bed to his wheelchair. Maybe drive him to physical therapy appointments. He is 150 lbs and not always stable on his feet, so you need to be strong enough to help him. Some periods of incontinence but can generally be transitioned to the commode or toilet on a schedule. We are still determining exactly how much coverage he needs but we think to start 8am to 1pm 7 days a week and possibly an evening shift from 4pm to 7pm. We will probably hire at least two people so they can coordinate a schedule.
Update 6/6/2025 - I received several replies to this yesterday (15) to which I replied with my cell phone but nobody called me. Please either include your cell phone and/or an e-mail address or ask me to schedule a time with you to meet you. Let me know if you'd like to meet at his house in Branford, at the Partheon diner in Branford, or at the health care facility where he is in Milford so you can meet him and we can see if this is a good match. Please provide some good times for me to call you or to meet with you. I am free on Monday 6/9 for meetings and all day today and this weekend to call you back. Thank you.
