Hello,
Do you know any agencies that could help watch my partner so I can take some time off?
Thank you.

@room777 Being able to take some time off would be fantastic for you to re-energize! I googled”caregivers.com” and many organizations popped up. Before you try this route, do you have any friends, family, or coworkers who would do this for you? You could pay them the going rate.

What Are Unlicensed Caregivers NOT ALLOWED To Do?
Give medications of any kind.
Mix medications for clients or fill their daily med minder box.
Give advice about medications.
Perform a medical assessment.
Provide medical care.
These rules state that you want licensed caregivers!
There are so many groups and agencies that have caregivers for hire. Good luck!
