[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lack of skilled caregivers for those with intellectual disability and the elder population. We just don't pay enough for this important work. [/quote] I’m not sure it’s just the pay. I think it’s hard to find a service to make the match. The services take so much off the top that the hourly pay is actually quite high. For people who don’t truly need medical care, a cheerful and competent companion who visits, cleans, shops, and hangs out to chat and ideally get the person to do a little exercise, etc. is what many people need. Assuming a lot of that could be done between school bus hours, I bet lots of SAHMs could do this very well and make some decent money. [/quote]
