The selected caregiver will have access to her car and is welcome to use any of the household facilities. I am looking for someone who will engage my mothers mind thru conversation, games, puzzles etc. My mother has the ability to take care of herself for the most part, but will require assistance moving in and out of the house, she has occasional bouts of dizziness and becomes unstable on her feet. I am looking for a caregiver who understands and is patient to the needs of a person with early onset Alzheimer's.
Tell us more about your situation. There are some really experienced, resourceful people on this board.
The idea you have floated won't work, even if you could find a reliable person (who isn't a criminal, a drug addict, etc,) with the qualifications you've listed.
There are minimum hourly wage laws and requirements for overtime pay.
It is quite unfair to offer room and board with the use of the house for fulltime care of an alzheimers patient. Honestly, what you are asking is akin to slavery.
People have bills and needs that your offer doesn't cover. You should check into a viable weekly salary to ensure that you don't end up with a loser living in your moms house and not really helping, because I promise you that the day to day reality will make this arrangement unacceptable in short order.
