About the Client:

The grandmother requires full personal care support and supervision due to cognitive decline and incontinence management needs. She is likely on the autism spectrum with specific routines and preferences, and may occasionally make inappropriate comments due to diminished filter.

Additional Considerations

The client is 97 years old and requires full personal care including diaper changes. She may exhibit cognitive decline and occasionally makes inappropriate comments due to lack of filter. The caregiver should be firm yet patient, able to redirect behavior professionally, and comfortable working with clients who may have autistic traits and memory issues. This is a short-term wedding event assignment requiring overnight care for two nights (October 24-26). The caregiver will stay in a separate bedroom in a two-bedroom hotel suite in Port Credit, Mississauga. Transportation to/from airport and wedding venues is handled by family, so driving is not required. The caregiver should focus on ensuring the client's comfort, safety, and dignity throughout the wedding celebration while allowing family members to enjoy the event.
