I'm caring for my father, who's 95. After a diagnosis of dementia Rodel can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Rodel desperately wants to stay at home. I work 40 hours a week and have cut back to look after him, but we need a part-time carer. Rodel worked all of his life as a bus driver, and raised 3 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 $850 goes: • Hospital bed and mattress rental: $70 • Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $95 • Part-time carer (three months): $685 Thank you so much.
