What is the hourly cost of non-medical home care for an elderly person? Please answer with a rate and area.?

My mother is 90 years old and in excellent health except for having broken her hip in March. She needs help with bathroom, laundry, meal preparation and everyday things. We try to hire someone for a few hours a day for 5 days a week. What should I expect to pay for the care of that? He lives in a rural South Carolina. I checked in yesterday, was $ 16.50 per hour for each additional car trips in Texas is the rate. When someone was sitting with my mother two years ago was $ 15 per hour in Washington, Oregon, is about $ 20 per hour. I assure you it is not easy to find someone. Unfortunately, the most likely source (Sahm) is not likely to compare this type of work. Have you consulted with local social services? Even if we had to pay for their services, people controlled the county to ensure they were safe to enter the house of an elderly person. Also consider some counties require a person with a disability to have certain qualifications and training due to medical problem I have (wheelchair) preparing meals for my grandmother to more than a year through the preparation of meals that could be frozen. Everything to do, he was removed from the freezer and throw it in the microwave or toaster. As for cost, I'd pay at least $ 15 per hour today (I live in the suburbs of the outer ring of MPLS), paid directly by the county. You control the taxes so (thank God). You see, you can not pay what the hour. The man must be a list of employees and the federal government and employers pay taxes as well. It's more like $ 8-9/hour (plus taxes) in rural MN. $ 20.00 Idaho baking time, etc. If you can eat and shop preparation is not done in 2 hours a day, meanwhile, expecially if you have laundry and dry cleaning and showers. I worked in a group home for several months, and all I did was cook and clean up the mess and dishes and worked 12 to 14 hours a day, takes a person is still time. Hope this helps a bit. I also concerts in CPR / first aid and unlicensed medical help. I work for an older law firm in New Jersey. Home health aids are differences in pay anywhere from $ 13 to $ 25/per hour, depending on individual needs and the amount of care needed. I think it would be better for you to South Carolina Department of Ageing, contact or go online to SC.Gov and on the website click on the aging and disability services directory. A friend of mine do it for a living, and she gets $ 18 per hour. Sarasota, FL. She is not really qualified to do anything medically. In St. Louis, Missouri health care providers insist on a four-hour minimum and charge between 18.00 and $ 20.00/hr I use an agency that all care for my mother (74) to be provided. It is four hours. minimum of $ 78.00.
