I know! People like to say, “Get home healthcare and nurses / caregivers will come take care of you”. That all depends on your insurance/ healthcare coverage. Not all coverages are the same. Some pay for 2 or 3 visits a week for a nurse to come and check vitals, etc. (and only if you cannot leave the house), some pay for someone to come 1 to 3 times a week to bath you 🛀, then there are some that pay for someone to sit and care for you throughout the day. Most do not pay for around the clock care, you either have to go to assisted living or a nursing home if you need that much care. If someone needs help getting up and down, say to get to the bathroom 🚽 during the night, are they just supposed to hold it throughout the night or chance falling when no one is there?

Sorry for the rant. I now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

Is this just four visits per week or total? I hope 🤞 they double check with your coverage . Watch closely so you don’t get charged? That happened to me.🙏
