  Sue M. asked:

  Good morning! Do any of you know where I can hire a Mandarin translator for an elderly lady? Someone who could come to her medical appointments and translate. Or, a PSW who speaks Mandarin. Any leads are appreciated!

  Aviva R. asked:

  Hi Ladies. I'm trying to help a friend with some unique needs. Basically she is looking for someone to assist her elderly mother with errand running and odd jobs. For example: shopping for birthday gifts, picking up some groceries, filling out paperwork, possibly taking her to appointments... That sort of thing. The tasks will vary and aren't necessarily an every day thing. My friend would ideally like someone she could contact and book as the need arises. She needs someone highly responsive, professional, and willing to learn her mother's tastes and preferences. Does anyone here run a service that could help? Thanks in advance.

  

  Catherine B. replied:

There are no contracts and we can be called upon with very short notice to assist. 613-798-5111 - our phones are answered 24/7. Thanks! Good luck with locating the right match!

  Patti B. asked:

  Hello Ladies, I'm looking for recommendations for Physiotherapists who are very experienced working with hemi-plegic stroke victims. I am also looking for a case manager and occupational therapist. Personal experience with these people would be preferred as I don't want to switch from who we are with to someone less experienced.

  

  Catherine B. replied:

  Lauren E. asked:

  I am not sure this is even a business... but does anyone know of someone who provides hospital to home transition services? Someone who can work with the family to coordinate, arrange, liaise, schedule home caregivers, medical equipment, CCAC, etc.? The family is exhausted and overwhelmed and could use some knowledgable professional support in getting ready to bring Dad home... Thanks all. Happy sunny Sunday!
