Hi,
This is my first post so ....hi there.
I care for my father who has moderate to severe Alzheimers and I am considering paying a friend to stay over night for up to 3 nights in a row. Which allows my family life to continue away from my fathers residential home.
I was wondering if anyone else pays someone to sleep over 'to be around' to keep an eye on things at night. How much is a suitable payment ? Do you pay hourly? or in a lump sum per night?
I really appreciate your experience in this regards.
Thank you in advance.
