I too was looking for a live-in caregiver and actually he starts today. Here in Calif. we can get IHSS (In Home Supportive Services) and it pays the caregiver 9.00 per hour plus Medical-Dental Insurance. This caregiver works 25 hours a week doing care and house cleaning. I have 2 caregivers. I also give him free room, free utilities, free cable, and free wi-fi connection. He gets around 800.00 a month after taxes. The new caregiver is a medical student plus works pt at a restaurant. So that's the low down here. Every case is different due to disability, living arrangement, and location. Take care, Donald C5/C6
