Home care fund for Maverick in Macon
Maverick can't afford the care He needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $4,950.
🇺🇸 Macon, Georgia, United States1,089 views
I'm caring for me, who's 79. After a fall and hip fracture Maverick can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Maverick desperately wants to stay at home.
I work 30 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer.
Maverick worked all of his life as a shopkeeper, and raised 4 children. Now we're trying to give some of that care back.
Medication, a hospital bed and a carer for four 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 $4,950 goes:
• Part-time carer (four months): $3,500
• Medication and prescriptions: $910
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $200
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $340
Thanks for reading all this.
