I'm caring for my mother, who's 95. After the death of her spouse Charlotte can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Charlotte 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.
Charlotte worked all of her life as a carpenter, and raised 5 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for eight 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 $4,250 goes:
• Part-time carer (eight months): $2,700
• Medication and prescriptions: $700
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $200
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $650
