I'm caring for my mother, who's 77. After a fall and hip fracture Tiffany can no longer manage alone. A nursing home would cost far more than we have, and Tiffany 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.
Tiffany worked all of her life as a nurse, and raised 5 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 $1,250 goes:
• Medication and prescriptions: $490
• Hospital bed and mattress rental: $450
• Mobility aids and bathroom adaptations: $310
