Male client
Jessie is a strong-willed man who is very caring. Jessie loves to have long conversations about his time spent in Malaysia and India and his journey studying dentistry.
Jessie has been caring for his wife, Mary for a few years now but he is struggling with his own health now and he also requires additional support, even though he would never admit this!
Jessie has a great sense of humour and is very outspoken. He doesn’t mince his words! If he’s not happy about something he will tell you. Jessie is funny and has everyone laughing because he’s so honest.
Jessie requires support with making all of his meals, although he does still make his own porridge in the morning (he enjoys doing this for himself). Jessie requires his medication to be administered. Jessie currently has his legs bandaged as he has cellulitis and this is monitored and treated by the DNs. Jessie had a fall in 2022 trying to help Mary, after she had had a fall. He damaged the vertebrae in his back and this has caused Jessie to have constant back pain. Jessie walks with a 4 wheeled walker and if he goes to appointments, he requires a wheelchair.
Jessie has 3 children who are always visiting.
The LIC would need to be able to administer medications, cook, have a sense of humour and not be offended by Jessie’s honesty. They would need to be able to complete light housework, shopping and collect prescriptions when required.
