[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't really charge 24/7 7 days a week. You need to sleep sometimes. [/quote] And that is exactly what you have to pay for when you hire 24/7 help. The help likely sleeps/dozes during the night shift, while nearby/in the same room as the patient. She is still the one who has to get up at 1am if mom needs to use the toilet, or needs water or whatever. If she is staying with her 24/7 she should be paid for it. [/quote] You usually have 3-4 people, not 1 person 24/7 365 days a year. [/quote] I am aware of that. But the help for overnight hours likely doesn't remain fully awake for their shift. They sleep in the same room/nearby/doze so they are there to help if/when needed. And you pay them similar to a daytime shift [/quote]
