Where to find companion for Mom with dementia

Anonymous
My mom, age 87 has dementia and lives with her significant other. He can't entertain her all the time and she can't seem to entertain herself because of dementia. I'm looking for someone (or some company) that can serve as a companion for about 4 hours on Saturday. Any suggestions?

We have had a good experience with Visiting Angels. It's a franchise, we have worked with one in another state. Good luck!

I would look into an adult day program. They have activities and you don't have to worry about a noshow. They will take someone with dementia as long as there aren't difficult behaviors or elopement.

Do you know anyone with a nanny looking to make extra money? We use a friend's nanny for this and it works great and is way cheaper than a service.
