Default In home caregiver

Does anyone know the best way to hire a part time in-home caregiver? We have recently move to The Villages with our 34 year old disabled son. He loves to go to the music on the squares, but sometimes my husband and I would like to take a night "off". I know there are several home health care companies but I wonder if that's the right way to go, since it would not be on a regular, scheduled basis.

Thanks for any advice!

Connie

We have a good friend who lives in The Villages who is a licensed L.P.N. and a very genuine, conscientious woman. We have referred clients to her in the past and they have been extremely satisified with her services. Her name is Diane Grieves and can be reached at 352-259-7809.

Hi Connie. I'm a senior care giver and while you aren't looking for care for a senior, you may find some helpful information on the comfort keepers website. There are a lot of articles about care giving, etc. While it's geared more towards seniors, there is a lot of great information that can be used for any type of in-home care :-) (centralfloridaseniorhomecare.com)
