One of the most frustrating things about having elderly parents or family members who have chosen to age in place is that you cannot be there 24/7 to help them if there is an emergency. It helps to hire a caregiver through a home care agency like Assisting Hands to give you some peace of mind, but what about the times when a caregiver is not there?
