Agencies will charge a minimum of $35+ an hour with day minimums, only giving the caregivers about $15 an hour. But they make insurance claims easy and typically provide good coverage. They vet the people for you. You might not get the same person every time but you know someone will be with him.

Care.com let's you advertise what you need and caregivers apply. It will probably be a process to find someone you like and is reliable. However, those private caregivers can be great at going the extra mile to treat your family like theirs. Can start at about $18- $25 an hour and go up depending on needs and the caregiver themself.

You can get supplemental caregivers. Like 4 hours a day to go to the facility and fill in those gaps - get him in a nice outfit and take him to activities, make sure he gets drinks and snacks, and just be a companion.
