Home care fund for Amelia in Surrey
Help Amelia stay in her own home with three months of part-time care.
🇨🇦 Surrey, British Columbia, Canada4,623 views
I'm caring for my mother, who's 76. After a diagnosis of dementia Amelia can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Amelia desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer.
Amelia worked all of her life as a bus driver, and raised 2 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 $6,850 goes:
• Part-time carer (three months): $5,250
• Medication and prescriptions: $840
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $420
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $340
Every share and every dollar helps.
