I'm caring for my mother, who's 77. After the death of her spouse Renata can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Renata desperately wants to stay at home. I work 50 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Renata 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 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 $1,450 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $115 • Part-time carer (six months): $1,200 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $135 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
