Yes we researched.
The person we are taking care of had a major stroke and their legs hardly work. They can barely stand. Yes they are going to PT but they seem to be getting worst. The doctors do not really know what to do sadly
We are trying to prevent hurting our backs anymore.
Please help if possible
Budget does not matter.
You have my sympathies.
If you are in the UK or Europe, this is exactly the sort of issue that state-funded healthcare can help with.
When my mother (who had vascular dementia) lost her mobility, - we were caring for her at home - the state supplied:
1: A medical bed - that could be tilted and/or raised/lowered as needed. The bed was disguised to look more 'normal' (it had wooden head and footboards), rather than an excellent rendition of the classical hospital bed.
Being able to raise, lower, and tilt the bed meant that moving the person in it was a lot easier.
2: An air mattress. This was to prevent bed sores.
These two pieces of equipment had control panels that would not have been out of place on the Starship Enterprise.
3: A "Buxton" style chair (could be raised or lowered or tilted as needed; it looked like an incredibly comfortable armchair, where my mother could sit out during the day).
Again, being able to tilt the chair made moving my mother a lot easier.
4: An electronically operated hoist (solid metal - it was regularly serviced by the state): This took two people to operate, and meant that my mother could be transferred from chair to bed and vice versa.
I would estimate that the cost of these three pieces - actually, four - of equipment easily ran into the tens of thousands of pounds.
5: Homecare service - we had three visits a day (lasting roughly half an hour each) where a body/company contracted to the state would send someone out to assist with my mother's care (washing, dressing, helping with eating, ensuring that meds were taken, etc, although our own carer took charge of much - if not most - of this).
6: My mother's medication was also funded by the state health care system.
7: Regular (twice weekly usually, more if matters deteriorated) visits from community health nurses - and doctors when necessary - to keep an eye on my mother's health and healthcare.
We, ourselves, funded private care as well: This took the form of of a wonderful Filipina carer, who lived with us for six years, providing superlative one on one care for my mother.
