My 93 year old MIL (who has dementia and cancer) is progressively getting worse (wondering our home in the middle of the night, confused about day and night, needing help getting dressed, etc.) Since I work full time and need my sleep, I have talked to my MIL's day caregiver about her moving in. She has agreed but I don't know how much to pay her, what possible problems that might arise, and what to expect. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
This arrangement can work very well when you find the right person. It's just wise to know all of the ins and outs so that you aren't faced with any nasty surprises.
Take care and good luck with this,
Carol
