[quote=Anonymous]Op I am not that far from my mom but incredibly busy so it’s challenging to go more than 1x/week, plus doctors every other week. What I did was hire someone to come in 2x/week to hang out with her. She does my moms laundry, takes her to CVs helps her shower and would be able to take her to dentist etc. she also informs me of what’s happening. It’s less expensive than moving my mom to the next level of care but also I like Having a separate set of eyes in things. I still take my mom to doctors but that’s because she can’t handle on her own (facility supposedly provides transportation and has in house doctor but neither are reliable). If you find someone good who can also drive her when needed that would be your best bet. She also might be able to help you mom with video chats (there are some easy senior friendly tablets etc).
