[quote=Anonymous]Hello, My elderly mother with mild dementia lives with us. We have agency help every day 9-5. The agency requires 1 week notices for schedule changes, and a minimum 4 hour time block to book help. What we really need for evening and weekend is a service that can be booked more spontaneously, and only for an hour or two. Does this exist? We could try to find someone on care.com, but we should have someone who knows how to treat people with memory issues. She also is a fall risk and uses a walker. If we want to go out to dinner or run errands, it becomes very expensive because we have to book the 4 hours whether we need that whole time or not. Does an agency like this exist? If not, any recommendations? [/quote]
