You are worried about your parents' health condition but you have an excellent career path where every woman desire and you can not just give up now. You do not want your aging parents to stay at the elderly home or home for the aged. You are torn between your parents' health condition and your children's future. Deciding to end your career in order to tend to your parents' needs can affect your children's possible bright future. This dilemma can cause chronic contention between you and your family in the long run.

Be a certified live-in caregiver at Cleverlearn Caregiver school
 You do not need to end your career just to tend to your parents’ needs as they grow old. The best solution is to hire a live-incaregiver who can assist to your elder’s needs without having to worry when you are away from them. You may use a hiring agency or rely on recommendations from friends or on advertisements. 

Choose from a reputable agency when hiring a live-in caregiver. Always remember that hiring a caregiver is also crucial to your family’s safety. This is because you do not know enough about this person yet but you will be dealing with this worker everyday in your home or your parents’ home, hence, they become a part of your household. It is best to hire this health worker from a registered agency and ensure that they have a work permit. You can not hire a worker on a trial basis just to find out if they are suitable and find another one if you think they are not. It is a crime to employ a worker who is not authorized by an immigration agency such as Citizenship and Immigration Canada or CIC in Canada.
