My 89 y.o. surrogate mother was hospitalized for 3 weeks at Providence St. Joseph's after falling down and breaking her hip, leg & arm. Before she was released, Jean, the rep from Prime Home Health visited and told her she would be needing 24/7 care "for a long time." There were no other options presented to her so she had to agree since she was wheelchair bound and needed help going to the bathroom, etc. The first caretaker, Vilma, was OK and did what she was supposed to do. But Prime Home Health has a practice of rotating their caregivers every 4 days and so Vilma was replaced by Rebecca who had a bad attitude and would not take directions, doing things her way. In fact, when my surrogate mother had to urinate in the middle of the night, she cried for help and Rebecca did not wake up so she had to crawl to the commode old but wet herself. Rebecca was then replaced by Virginia who was alright but then was replaced by Zita who did a worse job than Rebecca since she barely spoke English and therefore was difficult to communicate with.
