[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huge responsibility and liability as PPs mentioned.

I strongly suggest you hire through a reputable company. [b]You can book 4 hours at a time.[/b] [/quote]

That's the problem.   OP wants fewer than 4 hours.    She thinks it's too expensive to pay for 4 hours if she needs less than that.

Like another poster pointed out, less than 4 hours makes it not worth the employee's time.[/quote]

This PP and realized OP stated she only wants an hour at a time. Yeah, not going to happen.

It was extremely difficult to cobble together 24/7 care for my (now deceased) mom who’d just been released from the hospital with orders that she could not be alone. She needed supervision as she was a fall risk and needed help to and from bed, the bathroom, showering, ADL. She was in a continuing care community but in her own apartment.

Long way of saying to OP: you need to get 8 hour care now. You’re only going to need more support and hands on help, not less.
