[quote=Anonymous]I've considered a home aide for my caregiving mother, as my father has been doing length hospital stays and is scheduled for more. But in their country, hospitals don't allow visitors all day, only in the afternoon, so even if she wanted to, she wouldn't be able to be there the whole time. I DO agree that with a person not in complete command of the faculties, someone needs to be there as much as possible, so yes, you can try to find someone to sit with the patient. I fear what the cost is going to be, though, and your relatives will still have to pop in *inconsistently* to verify that the sitter is doing their job. [/quote]
