[quote=Anonymous]We live in Laurel, so my sources are in MD.  When my brother-in-law was invalided before he passed, he used Home Instead based in Pasadena.  They were good because they took his Medicare and were willing to do part-time care.  They would send an aide out for a few hours at a time.  I think he was limited to something like 20 hours per week and the aide would come for 5 4-hour visits.  She would take him to run errands, and would help him with basic care including making him lunch, helping to the rest room (he just needed mobility help, not bathroom help), helping him change the sheets on his bed, help him make sure his hearing aids, phone, tablet were all charged, etc.  We had a few caretakers.  One was really great, one was good and one was below average.

We had a friend who used Warman Home care for part-time care for an in-home parent a few years ago, but I don't know many details about their agreements as it wasn't my family.  I just know that they seemed happy with the service.[/quote]
