[quote=Anonymous]It is going to be hard to find someone to hire for the holidays. You may want to let people on Nextdoor know you are looking and perhaps try care.com too. Is she at all aggressive? If so you need to make that clear and pay much more. Don't be surprised if she suffenly becomes aggressive from all the changes-coming to your home/new setting, a hired stranger coming in to help, etc. All of that makes anxiety skyrocket. Great suggestions on here for accidents. I would also start looking into cleaning services for the inevitable accident that seeps through the protective stuff. If anyone was asthma or smell endued migraines, spraying Lysol a bunch could set off issues. Having the window open now and then is a good idea or just having it cracked open. That's good she is on a waiting list. She needs to be in Memory care. It will make the holidays so much happier for everyone. Even just you all coming to visit her at Memory care can create stress if more people come than usual, but at least she will be a familiar setting with familiar aides.[/quote]
