Well, John, you aren't alone. I realize that you asked this question four years ago, however, there may be someone wondering the same thing. There are many companies out there that are non-nursing care that can come in and assist you in caring for your loved one. Home Instead, Comfort Keepers and Interim are just a few. I wish you the best of luck!
