I am very new to all of this, and its a bit over-whelming trying to get started. My grandmother just got out of the hospital and they said she is not bad enough to be in assisted living but not good enough to stay alone. So I stepped up and said I could stay with her 24/7 but financially it is not feasible. How can I go about getting compensation for doing so?
Please please help any info is welcome!

Do understand that often on AgingCare Forum we see disasterous stories of people accepting minimum wage and free rent and ending both penniless and homeless and without a job history to help them move forward in life. This is often a bad idea. Wishing you the best of luck.
