How do I get rid of my caregiver because I can no longer afford her. She is abusing me emotionally anyway, so I want to get rid of her.


I don't need a caregiver anyway. I'm well enough without one.

Sorry if I posted it several times. There's nothing on the website that says you can't post again.

Have you called APS and reported abuse of a vulnerable person?

I would do that and ask for help in anyway they can help you.

I am sorry that you are being abused and used in this situation.

I pray that APS helps you get rid of this person.

mjcharland, why on earth are you paying this person for doing small tasks around your home if you don not want this person in your home? There must be more to this issue, a back story.

Note my reply. This is an old post and has been asked 3x since 2018. The last being Jan. OP has received the same answers and continues to keep the caregiver around.

You posted this back in May has there been any resolution? (oops, I see the original question was from last September) If not then perhaps the caregiver does more for you than you realize, most competent people wouldn't have this much difficulty dismissing an unneeded employee.

Did it ever occur to you that perhaps I fired her but she refuses to leave? Yet that's what happened.

Mjcharland, may I asked why a caregiver had originally been assigned to you? That will give us a better idea of the situation.

Edit: I just checked, this is a duplicate question. https://www.agingcare.com/questions/how-can-i-get-rid-of-an-abusive-caregiver-that-i-can-no-longer-afford-442567.htm

I am confused. If you could not afford her back in September 2018 [your first posting on this subject], the caregiver must be being paid somehow since the caregiver is still with you as of January 2020. Can you tell us more.

I think you need to do what u are planning. Other posts you say she is abusing you. Then call APS. If ur not paying her why is she hanging around. To tell u the truth at this point I wouldn't care if I wrecked her life. And I would not give her references.

So sorry that you are being abused.

Be strong, get the money together that you need to legally force an eviction.
You will feel safer once the Sheriff arrives to physically remove her from your home.

It would be kind of you to start packing some of her things she has left lying around the house. Those will be placed outside when the Sheriff comes.

Do not hesitate to call 911 if anything happens in the meantime.

Be strong, especially when you are in the right.
You can do this.
