Home care fund for Alexandre in São Paulo
Help Alexandre stay in his own home with six months of part-time care.
🇧🇷 São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil1,425 views
I'm caring for my father, who's 75. After a fall and hip fracture Alexandre can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Alexandre desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Alexandre worked all of his life as a farmer, and raised 2 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for six 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 $350 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $125
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $90
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $135
Thanks for being kind about this.
