[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]There are lots of people who do this unless you are in some isolated backwater.[/b] Reminding to take medication is one thing but dispensing it is another. Check the laws for your jurisdiction and don’t ask a companion/housekeeper to do anything illegal.[/quote] It can actually be easier to find good people to do this in those "isolated backwaters." [/quote] Yes. This is 40 years ago, but there was nearly always a farm widow ISO income. My grandmother had two different companions who alternated spending the night to ensure someone was on hand in case she fell. Also present to ensure she did not leave a skillet on a lit burner, etc. She still handled all the chores - no way was she going to relinquish! - but sometimes needed to be steered back on track.
