We are seeking a dependable, kind, and experienced weekend caregiver for a warm and lovely 97-year-old woman, Martha ("Marte"), who lives in her Oakmont home with her daughter. This is a meaningful opportunity for a caregiver who is attentive, proactive, and committed to compassionate care.

About the Client:

Martha is living with Alzheimer's Disease, Atrial Fibrillation, and Congestive Heart Failure. She uses a walker and requires assistance with incontinence care, personal hygiene, medication reminders, and light housekeeping. She enjoys music, short conversations, naps after breakfast, and a structured daily routine.

She is supported by a loving family and has two cats, so pet-friendliness is a must. The home is peaceful and caregiving expectations are clear, thanks to her daughter who is actively involved.

Key Responsibilities:
  • Companionship & Emotional Support

  • Medication Reminders – Morning meds must be taken 30 minutes before breakfast, with additional medication at breakfast and dinner (pill organizer provided).

  • Meal Preparation – Prepare and serve light, nutritious meals.

  • Incontinence Care – Encourage bathroom trips, check Depends for dampness, and assist with cleanup if needed.

  • Mobility Support – Encourage movement and make sure Martha uses her walker.

  • Daily Weight Checks

  • Light Housekeeping – Including sweeping the deck, doing laundry (including bed sheets), and general tidying.

  • TV Assistance – Ask daughter to turn it on if Martha wants to watch.

  • Hydration Support – Encourage regular non-caffeinated fluid intake.

  • Personal Care Assistance – Including grooming, changing clothes, brushing teeth, and bedtime routines.

Ideal Candidate:
  • Experienced with dementia and senior care

  • Patient, respectful, and observant

  • Able to take direction from the daughter and follow routines

  • Willing to work with a care team and communicate effectively

  • Pet-friendly (comfortable with cats)

  • Punctual and dependable — must ensure next caregiver has arrived before leaving your shift

    This is a rewarding opportunity to make a positive difference in a loving home environment. If you are kind-hearted, experienced, and reliable, we would love to hear from you.
