Are they any programs that help pays care give in the state of Alabama? My sister is willing to do it because she loss her job at Ft. Rucker and her unemployment has run out and she is looking for work, but she don't want to take a job if we can get some kind of help. My Mother has Alzheimer's and Dementia, and started having seizures, and Doctor wants someone with her for 6 month to a year.
There are two great articles written by AgingCare.com editor’s that were already posted in our community. We thought this might answer your caregiving question.
