I have a few questions for you:

- she wants Plantation Shutters. Any supplier(s) you would recommend?

- she needs a family Doctor, experienced with older women.

- she would like a caregiver 2 hours a day to make lunch and dinner, clean up, take her for walks and shopping, etc. Any person/service to recommend?

- she wants to get a Medical Alert system that she wears and can press a button in case of emergency. Is there a particular service that Villagers tend to use.

- she wants to buy a Golf Cart. Is there a particular vendor she should contact.

Thanks in advance for your help. I'm hoping to get her to learn to use her Ipad by reading this forum every morning. Larry (in Canada)
Welcome to TOTV Ms Betty.

Larry, I assume your mother is an American citizen, qualified to receive health care in the US, and not limited to 182 days in a calendar year (USA regulations for Canadian citizens).
