Care for a 92-year-old gentleman with limited mobility. He is a widower, has very poor hearing, and suffers from severe arthritis and early dementia. He is not easy to please. He uses a walking stick for support. A stairlift and a walker are available, though he does not use the latter. He is independent with self-care, drives, and goes grocery shopping. Occasionally, he needs a reminder to change into clean clothes. The caregiver prepares simple meals, cleans, does laundry, and manages the household. The gentleman enjoys meat dishes; breakfasts and dinners are cold. He only requires food and drinks to be prepared; he does not need activities or companionship. A cleaning lady visits the home once a week. Shops are nearby. A car, a bicycle, and a prepaid shopping card are available. Night duty is not required as the gentleman usually sleeps through the night. The family visits frequently to help, handles all organizational matters, and is ready to assist when needed. Free time is by arrangement.
