She can dress herself, only needs guidance when visiting the toilet, and changes incontinence pads independently. She requires help mainly with showering and personal hygiene. She needs support when walking and rather supervision and guidance when eating and with general daily activities.

He is entirely dependent on help with dressing, personal hygiene, and using the toilet. He also needs help with eating, and food needs to be cut into small pieces. He likes to go out and is sociable, so walks and activities together are welcome. When transferring, a hoist is needed, and the gentleman can partially cooperate. A hoist and a toilet chair are available in the household. The gentleman is from Russia and speaks Russian. He smokes in the apartment. The job includes caring for both spouses, help with hygiene, managing the household, preparing meals, shopping, cleaning, and laundry. Night shifts are not required.
