Re: Walmart "pick up" service..... Carol
Your doctors will be the ones to say how long you need the various kinds of physical care. But as for a "companion," that will be someone you'll probably have to hire and pay for yourself. In California, there is something called In Home Support Services for people on Medi-CAL that pays for someone like a companion, a non-medical person, who is given a certain amount of hours per week to do general tasks. But to be eligible for that you have to have very little money. Different states would have different means tests, so you might look into it, just to cover all bases, though I would imagine you, like me, wouldn't qualify. Checking out all possibilities never hurts.
