If you describe the situation, that would help. Is this for someone who's already at home, who's hospitalized, who's in rehab, or another type of situation?
Each situation has a different timeframe. And the research and interview time also has to be factored in, as do the individual's medical conditions.
on: - privately hired? agency? Medicaid-funded? - for what person/what type of care? Medical? Cognitive? Both? - what state and county is this person living in?
Also, it's one thing to "set it up" and it's another thing to be satisfied with what has been set up (the quality of the people providing the care, the schedule, etc).
I helped set up in-home care from an agency for my 2 elderly aunts in south FL. We went through a few people over the course of a year until we finally got someone who was literally just perfect. We've had her for 6 years and now she wants to retire (nooooooo!!!!!!) and we are holding onto her ankles. Need to start the process all over again. I wish you much success!
