Have you read the thread about bringing your parent to live in your house?
What are you mother's health issues and what level of care does she need?
If you are married and have other family members living at home, how do they feel about the whole thing?
Try to look at this from as many angles as possible so that what you choose is the best for everyone so that no one, including yourself, or something else important does not get thrown under the bus.
Are you asking about practical issues, such as making your home safe, etc.? Or, are you asking about being a paid caregiver? If it is the former, what do you need to know? If it is the latter, there isn't much in the way of gov. compensation. let us know...
