How do I get paid to take care of my Popa (grandpa) in North Carolina?

Dragonflamez4, welcome to the forum. Please note that the vast majority of family caregivers do not get paid.... unless the patient can pay you from their own savings. If your Grandfather can pay you, then you would need to put together a Caregiver's Agreement.

Another suggestion is to contact your State's Medicaid office [Medicaid is different from Medicare] to get your Grandfather onto Medicaid, if he not already on that plan. The State can pay you, but don't be surprised if the pay is minimum wage for only a few hours per week. Medicaid is funded by the taxpayers.
