My mom is now in Winter Park. Se suffers from dementia and nobody else lives at her house. The company my brother found has sent contientous people who don’t leave her. They at least call my brother, but only when the replacement is late and they just can’t stay. If you’d like, I’ll get the company name so you can see if they have anyone up your way.
One of the ladies who visits my mom has started taking my mom to her church. Mom is a staid Episcopalian and the woman is a black Pentecostal. I hear that Mom loves it and is somewhat of a celebrity, although she never remembers anyone there.
These aides are coming from the “Personalized Services” unit of the conglomerate that owns the condo the building where Mom lives, the Alzheimer’s care center where Dad lives, and other facilities. I don’t know whether she can bring in help from another agency. All kinds of background-checking has to go on, apparently.
If the aide isn’t there, there’s still the care center staff, but Dad could fall at any time if he’s alone, as he did sometime during Monday night.
