[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]to expect the aide to during a 4 hour shift, 3 days per week in terms of laundry, meal prep, tidying up? Or does it just vary contract to contract? [/quote] Keep your expectations low and be very grateful if you parent likes the person. They are paid terribly. A lot of what you pay goes to the agency. During 4 hours a load of laundry and an easy-low prep meal would be amazing. Let the person have downtime and use their phone too or just chat and offer companionship-especially if they have to help with bathroom trips which is exhausting.[/quote]
