I’m Isobel and I’m looking for someone warm and reliable who can support me to shower and dress in the mornings and ready for bed in the evenings. I have mild to moderate dementia, and my mobility has become limited after a fall, but I can walk with the assistance of one person and a walking frame.
I live with my husband (who is independent but cannot provide personal care and also walks with a walker) and our grown-up son (who is not always available). We have one lovely, well-behaved dog who is part of the family.If you are as self-employed carer with patience, a professional manner who enjoys working with older people, we would love to hear from you.
