I am trying to find out how I can get paid for being my mm's caregiver? She had a stroke on April 9 and is home with hospice since April 19.

As she is in care now this is the ideal time to grab that social worker. She will give you pointers in the right direction to explore options.
Best to you. Stay in touch at every point with the social workers. Be the squeaking wheel that must get oil.

Its really hard to get paid for caring for a LO. If Mom is competent, you could write up an agreement if she has the money. The agreement should have it notarized.

Medicaid, in some States, will pay a family member but it may be minimum wage and only a certain amount of hours. Mom has to meet the criteria. Call Office of Aging to see if they know of any programs.
