Description
My mother has dementia. She is a very proud and private person who has never acknowledged her diagnosis. My father has coped amazingly but we now need someone to help. The right person will be kind and have experience of people with dementia (a carer/ a nurse/ even someone who has had a relative with dementia and just 'gets it'). We are looking for someone who could spend 3 hours a day with her, Monday to Friday from about 9am. Initially, it may be fewer hours whilst you get to know each-other.
Mum has always been immaculately presented and now needs help to maintain this (choosing her clothes, doing her face, making sure her hair looks nice etc). Going for a walk with their dog, having a cup of coffee, spending a bit of time in the garden with her might all be part of the package.
The usual things like references, probably DBS, would apply. Don't be put off if you aren't actually a formally trained carer - the right person may not have qualifications but will just be able to understand what's needed.
We can negotiate on pay.
