When Mum could no longer remember how to use a regular cordless phone, I researched, then drove to Best Buy to buy the one she has now - specially for the elderly with hearing, seeing, remembering difficulty.

Please review the following information the next time you have to speak to a nurse about Mum's phone:

1.  If you phone and hear it ringing but Mum doesn't answer, it's because:

-  she can't reach it

-  she's not in her room

-  it doesn't ring, because the volume button is off, or turned down low

-  the RED LIGHT will still FLASH, but even if Mum sees it flashing, she's not likely to realise it means someone is trying to call, and pick up.

2.  If it is engaged, it means the phone is off the hook, because:

-  Mum hasn't been able to hang up

-  she's trying to phone one of us

-  someone else is on the phone to her

3.  If Mum can't hear properly and you find yourself shouting:

-  the phone has slipped slightly and she's not speaking right into the mouthpiece, then just remind her to "speak into the phone".

-  or the volume button is switched to low.

4.  Another reason the phone may not work is if it has accidentally been unplugged from the wall socket (when cleaning).  Socket, with an adaptor in it, is on the wall by window, near the floor, opposite Mum's bedside table.

The crucial, but small, VOLUME BUTTON is not on the front of the phone - it is on the RIGHT SIDE.

Mum phones when in pain or needs toilet . Tell her to pull the cord if she can.  If necessary, phone Nurse and leave message to get a PSW.  This you will have to do when I'm away.

Helpful if you phone Mum just before Helper arrives - ask how she is - make her laugh - and tell her someone is coming.  She always thanks me for the warning, and this puts her in a good mood for their arrival.

Over summer, might need longer hours in pm shift.

Need an additional helper for my 97-year-old mum who lives at the Garry Armstrong Care Centre on Porter Island (Near St Patrick and Vanier Pkwy). Would be for 2 hours slots in morning or afternoon. Need someone to chat to her, tell her a bit of the News, discuss travel, watch tennis matches/skating on TV. She does not have a good memory, but she can engage in conversations.  If you know of anyone, plz get in touch dagmarabrunst@gmail.com

Initially it would only be for a 2 h slot and substitution, increasing in May and summer.

Thank you,

Dagmara
My mum is 99, living in the Garry Armstrong Care Centre, but we have not been able to see her and with the thought of a second round of COVID 19 we are thinking of bringing her home. We are looking for someone in the neighbourhood who would be able to drop in for an hour or two in the morning or some afternoons. Mum is bed/wheelchair bound and sleeps a lot.

The helper would need to be able to do the following:

1.     Entertainment:  chat to her, tell her a bit of the News, discuss travel, watch tennis/skating/ballet/documentaries. She does not have a good memory, but she can engage in conversations and loves life and is always interested in whatever.

2.     Outings: on nice days wheel her into the park or around the neighbourhood.

3.     Toiletry: give her a potty and change a diaper.

4.     Food: make her a cup of tea or give her some biscuits/fruit

Please get in touch at dagmarabrunst@gmail.com

Thank you,

Dagmara

To prevent wax build-up, apply Johnson’s Baby Oil to both ears twice weekly before bed.  Oil drops on MARS  Nurses do this.

Before putting in Mum’s aids, hold them in hand to make sure the batteries aren’t flat (if it squeals when you close your hand, the battery is still OK).

Aids need to be cleaned every week; filters replaced every month.  Plz all do this.  Mention it in your report when you do, so we can keep track.
