Elder Care Job in Minden, Ontario

My Mum, Eeva is living with what is assumed to be vascular dementia for the last 5 years. She is pleasant, gentle and kind by nature, and remains so to this day. She loves to dance, listen to music, go for walks, read, and look at photo albums. She is 87 and lives with my father George who is 94 and who now has an MCI but is still independent with some weekly support from myself. He has physio exercises and needs some instructional support to do them, he has not been keeping up with them. I provide meals which they reheat, my father does some cooking. They go for daily walks together. Recently she has started wearing Depends at night with bed protection pads on her bed, as she has been urine incontinent at times at night- waking up and not understanding that she needs to replace a wet Tena pad with another. They need regular help with making sure my mother's bed is dry and in order- the pads seem to be working but they are not always disposed of properly and a morning check needs to be done to make sure she is properly clothed and if there is anything wet that it has been disposed of or set aside to wash. She may need some bathing support if I am not available. My father could use some support by having someone there to keep my mother busy while he showers. Some laundry and helping them to keep her clothing in order in her room is needed as well as filling dishwasher with any dishes that have made it into cupboards when they are not fully washed. We are looking for someone who has experience and training in caring for persons living with Dementia. We can chat over the phone/Zoom or meet in person when I am up in Minden, whichever you might prefer.
