Thanks for your response. Its helped me alot. Now I have another
question. I was placed on a case where the main caregiver was
hospitalized so now they need 24 hr care. I picked up the night 12 hr
shifts.. sat off and sunday 24 hr shift. They have told me I can
sleep, however I feel so guilty. They are paying ALOT of money to the
agency to have me sleeping there. Have any of you had similar
expirences?

Thanks In Advance for your advice.
Tara
