Home care fund for Addison in Brisbane

I'm caring for my mother, who's 85. After the death of her spouse Addison can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Addison desperately wants to stay at home. I work 25 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Addison worked all of her life as a farmer, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back. Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for three months will make a huge difference. The carer will be employed through a registered agency and paid directly. I'll share the agency invoices. Where the $4,350 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $175 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $260 • Part-time carer (three months): $3,915 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Dylan
