[quote=Anonymous]Yes. You can. What you need is a higher-end companion care arrangement. It sounds like she doesn’t need a caregiver (someone who helps with ADLs, Activities if Daily Living) but just a companion to run errands, take her to doctor appointments, go out to dinner, etc. There are elder care companies that have care managers or client services managers or client care managers or elder services managers (just Google life care management or senior care) It can be pricey ($130-175/hour) or if you go the companion care route it will be more like $35/hour but the person may not have anything in common with your mom. It will just depend how open your mom is to the idea.[/quote]
