Is there any financial support for caregiver?

I can no longer work. Caring for Mom is almost full time. Financial aid would be great. Mom lives with us. I am rapidly going into debt.

Hello sleepyhallow7,

There are two great articles written by AgingCare.com editor’s that were already posted in our community. We thought this might answer your caregiving question.

We hope this helps.

You need to make an appointment with an Elder law Attorney to advise you about how Mom should be paying her own way.. Ask him about a caregiver contract.. This way she will pay you to take care of her..
