[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Before my mom moved to assisted living and then memory care, she had an aide 8 hrs/day. The aide did light housekeeping (dishes, helped with laundry, tidied up, swept, etc), light meal prep, driving, shopping, and help with bathing. But my mother did not need physical or personal/medical care otherwise. We still had regular cleaners, she was mobile and not incontinent or, at that time, very confused. If she had an aide now (she is in memory care), I would not expect the cleaning beyond the day to day light duties--wiping down, organizing a few things, etc. I would expect some meal prep, personal care, and just being with her, which is more exhausting. [/quote] Thanks for this [/quote]
