[quote=Anonymous]My mother was just released from rehab after a fall. We have a home aide in every day this week since we didn’t know what to expect when making the arrangements, and will move to three days a week next week. The aide helps with light housekeeping, dishes, laundry, bathing, dressing, meal prep, and general companionship. She cannot handle medications directly, but can give reminders to take them, open the bottles, and supervise to make sure mom puts the correct pills into the correct sections of the pill box. She’ll also help put away grocery deliveries if they arrive while she is here. Our understanding is that she can drive to appointments as lone as the timing works out, but we haven’t asked (and one of the ladies who came this week uses Uber, so that wouldn’t have been possible with her).
