“I couldn’t bear to send her to a nursing home where she’d have to wait for several hours to get dressed, couldn’t do what she loves. We’ve had experience with agencies that send you their aides rather than you choose. The bottom line is we want to be happy in our house, and if you’re in a nursing home, you’re not in our house, and if you have an agency person who was sent to you who is not nice to you, then we’re not really happy in our house.”
“I have been with the program for over 20 years. You are allowed to choose who comes into your home to take care of you. No more having random people sent to me.”
“If I didn’t have PA, I could be put in a nursing home. I’m just 25 years old. I have so much to live for. I don’t want to just lay in bed in a nursing home.”
