Default TV Rules and Elder Home Care

I suppose this question might apply to any community.

How does TV deal with situations where an elderly person needs assistance in the home and wants to hire live-in help.

For example, let say the husband needs hands on help, and the wife can no long provide the help because of her strength limitations.

To try to keep the husband in the home longer, they decide to hire someone to stay in the home with them for some period. Maybe 6 months to 18 months.

The person that is being hired is younger (e.g., 30 years old).

Would that couple run afoul of the age restriction rule? Do they differentiate between guests and live-in help for medical need?
