Home Health Aides: Why Hire From an Agency?
New York Times United States
50 an hour in New York City. So is an additional $6. 50 an hour worth it to you?Well to answer that question you have to answer some other questions that address the rest of the items on that list: Will the home health aide be caring for someone with a diagnosed medical condition?If my mom hates the person I hire can I quickly find a replacement — or even a replacement for the replacement?If this person calls in sick or plans a vacation am I able to work from home to provide care?Can I trust this person to do the food shopping for my dad and only buy what he needs and not extras?Am I worried that my mom might fall and break her hip — again — and then need to be hospitalized or do I have an aide who is trained to prevent falls?What is the chance that my situation becomes one of those awful newspaper stories of ?elder abuse? or financial fraud?If my dad?s condition worsens and more medical attention is needed can I get a registered nurse to come to the home?
