Re: Home carer needed for elderly gentleman (87 years old)

Beachbabe wrote:Looking for a kind lady to care for my elderly Father in his home in the St Luis area. The person would provide companionship, three meals a day, keep the house clean and do shopping, laundry etc as needed. My Father is quite frail but fully cognizant and semi-mobile. Ideally this person would live in the same house, separate accommodation is provided, bedroom/bathroom/living room and also the use of a car. Failing that, someone who could call to him three times daily would be next best arrangement. Must be non-smoker, English speaker. Competitive salary.



Personally, knowing a bit about this as my mother is the same age and has care needs, I would only go on genuine recommendations from neighbours/friends in the area or recommendations from 'long standing' members on this forum, or maybe better still use an accredited Care Agency. I would never use someone who just says they can do this or replies to this post saying they can do it for you. This is a minefield and choosing a random person can be very risky for various reasons.

You could also contact the association Help Vega Baja association and ask their advice on choosing carers: https://www.helpvegabaja.com/

Hope you get the help you need.

Thanks Jan, I'll try helpvegabaha and also care of the aged. Just trying all avenues to try and find the right person. He did have a wonderful lady coming to him three times a day but unfortunately she has gone back to her home country.

Hi All, thanks for all your comments. We did find someone who we thought was suitable but it turns out she is only available in the short term. We're still looking for someone long term so would appreciate if anyone knows somebody who might fit the bill.
