[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have you looked into paying someone to stay in her house? How does the cost of that compare? Either 9 to 5 or 24/7 in her house.[/quote] Her house probably has stairs and just the routine maintenance, yard work on top of being older with mobility issues can be too much for them, even with a caregiver living in the home with them and helping her with shopping, errands, bills, etc. That's a lot of work for one caregiver. The Independent/Assisted living facilities are usually offer them their own private apartments, meals in a dining room, transportation, activities. She wouldn't be so isolated.[/quote]
