Putri wants to stay at home - help fund six months of care

Putri can't afford the care She needs after a fall and hip fracture; we're asking for $650.

I'm caring for my mother, who's 82. After a fall and hip fracture Putri can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Putri desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after her, but we need a part-time carer. Putri worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 4 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. Funds cover the carer's wages, medicines, a hospital bed rental and incontinence supplies. Where the $650 goes: • Part-time carer (six months): $420 • Medication and prescriptions: $85 • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $75 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $70 With deep gratitude, Citra

          • Salim Sami GaberQuestion

            Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Putri

            • Citra Fani LubisOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

              Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. part-time carer (six months) comes first ($420) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. It helps to be asked.

          • Massimo Andrea Martino
