[quote=Anonymous]Op here. No, we’ve talked with the doctor about it. She doesn’t qualify for home health through Medicare because she doesn’t show enough improvement on a week to week basis. We tried it before and PT/OT only came out for a few weeks and she refused most visits. Home health care we’ve been through. It cost my Dad $25/hr, minimum 4 hour visit and my mom would at times get agitated and call the police saying theres strangers in her home. She really needs to be in a care facility but my dad is vehemently against it. He thinks we can coast along until he retires. Both my dad and sister are in a little bit of denial. My dad can’t keep up with the $2000/month cost of in home care. I have asked my wife if we can pitch in but she is refusing, saying my sister is the one who benefited from no childcare costs and she should be the one to pitch in. [/quote]
