Is there financial compensation for being a caregiver to a senior family member in Chicago, Illinois?

My mom went through cancer treatment and is suffering from the side affects. She also has to take blood thinners for a heart condition. She fell a couple days ago and was bleeding on her elbow. She hit her elbow while I was out doing grocery shopping the following day and she bled enough that I am worried about her falling again and more. I am currently unemployed and cannot afford in home care. I would like to be my mom's caregiver at all times. Money is a problem. What programs are available and what information will I need to provide? Are there certifications that I can complete?
