How much does in-home assistance for an elder cost?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varies: It varies depending on the services needed. If you need people for round-the-clock care, it can get very pricey. If you just need someone a few hours a day to help the person bathe, dress, daily cares, a few household things, then it is usually quite affordable. Many local health departments have very inexpensive in-home care services for the elderly & medicare may even reimburse part or all.

Hi there, since childhood I have had worry/anxiety around bedtime. When my parents were away, I would be awake or wake up during the night until I knew they were back home. Now my partner and I work different schedules with him not coming home until late at night. Im having the same issues with falling and staying asleep until he gets home safely. Are there any recommendations on insomnia directly related to worrying? Any assistance would be helpful. Bedtime Anxiety Affecting Sleep Quality?
