Hello,
I am a Registered Nurse of 30 years. I am not yet retired; I recently left a position as a Director of Patient Services at a Homecare agency in NY. I moved to The Villages 8 months ago to care for my Aunt, since I am her POA and Health Care Surrogate.
Respite and relief for Caregivers is so very important!
I believe that you may be able to bring him to a respite situation, through his Medicare. However, if being at his own home is more comfortable, I may be interested.
Do you have dates in mind?

I basically cannot go away if I have to worry so would need someone reliable to be with him (in case of seizures) any suggestions, ideas etc appreciated
