[quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know of services that provide unscheduled home care? My dad has Parkinson's and is cared for by my mom: help with walking, toileting, watching for signs of choking when he eats. But even though her health is generally okay, she has an intestinal disorder and, once or twice a year, ends up in the ER, leaving him alone in the house. They use Visiting Angels, but their VA location provides scheduled services only. We wish we could find a service that would send an aide to be with him during an emergency. All their family are hundreds of miles away, and their friends are old and frail. Does anyone have experience with a situation like this?[/quote]
