I worked with my dad for 25 years. Then he slowly developed dementia, to the point that I needed to take care of all of his affairs.
I made sure he was fed and helped him to get in and out of the shower.
I gave him his food and made sure his medicines were taken and his prescriptions re-filled. I also assisted him to go out of the house once in awhile for some other activities, besides TV and reading.
He now is living in a board and care since he really needed 24 hr. supervision which makes it hard for me to do any other things.
I appreciate seniors for their wisdom and would like to continue to work with seniors.
