24449: [request] Mason: Any Elderly Day Care Services for Haitians in Phila. Area? (fwd)



From: MariLinc@aol.com

Corbetters,

I just received a letter from an American woman whose disabled mother has a home healthcare aide who is Haitian.

And that Haitian healthcare aide has a problem.

Her own mother is elderly and some days the healthcare aide cannot go to work in order to care for her own mother.

She's torn between her job and caring for her own mom, who only knows Haitian Creole. She would like to know if there is an elderly day care center in the Philadephia area with staff and other clients who can speak to her in Haitian Creole?

That elderly Haitian mom is isolated and depressed because of lack of social and cultural contact.

Any Corbetters know of such a place?

Please let me know.

Marilyn
