Whether it's a chronic illness or a wheelchair or both, we all have a need for assistance. Sometimes it takes a while before we admit that. It's human nature to try to be determined enough to do it on your own as long as you possibly can. But when you do need that help you need either someone that lives with you and is there 24/7 or you need a home health aide that can come in and help you with the things you can no longer do alone.
There are a lot of us that need more than someone to just keep us company, microwave a meal or play a game of checkers. I can't move without a patient lift and I'm not capable of cleaning myself without assistance. Those types of home health aides are not so easy to find. Back to, as I've said before, “home health aides are the most overworked and underpaid members of the medical pyramid." Truly skilled people are so underpaid that they either move on or continue with school to become qualified for a better paying job in the field.
In the area where I am it is especially difficult to find not just qualified for my needs, but Home Health Care at all
This weeks vlog has happy moment and sad moments. And keep your eye on the left side of the screen if you just want to see lots of cat and kitten play video bombs!
Be sure to stick around for my happy ending slate!
