[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can hire someone to do this work, but if you want someone who can make independent decisions you are going to need to pay more than home health care salaries, and you will probably need to hire them full-time to be dependable. [/quote] I am actually thinking of maybe getting a job like this. Not someone medically trained, but even keeled and intelligent enough to understand what the dr says, the meds dosage, elementary administering procedures like eye drops and such. Competent enough to drive, understand and speak English (including medical terminology). Honest enough to take the senior shopping and help them use a credit card. Hard working enough to not see cleaning and cooking as something beneath me. What I don’t want is some weird a** family member suing me for whatever, and no physical care such as bathing or toileting. [/quote]
