How much do live in sitters cost in the south? What is required?

It's so expensive to keep someone at home. I would love to find a live in sitter with weekends off. How much does this usually cost and what is required? Mom needs diaper changes and small meals and company!!! That’s the most important!! She has cancer and is on hospice. Doing exceptionally well.

Prices really vary. You will want someone who is qualified. Someone with a nursing degree will naturally change more. You get what you pay for.

Most people will tell you that it is cheaper to place their parent in an assisted living facility rather than private pay.

There are advantages of having an entire staff in a facility. Plus, they offer amenities in the facility such as, a chapel, hair salon, restaurant, exercise room, library, etc.

It’s a personal choice as to how this is handled.

Wishing your family peace during this difficult and challenging time.
