A recent news event in the Statesville, NC area serves as a warning to everyone seeking In Home Care. The Statesville Record and Landmark newspaper reported
that a 21 year-old disabled woman was left unattended by her
caregiver. Neighbors called police when the woman was spotted on a
porch by herself surrounded by garbage. Her caregiver left her by
herself and authorities suspect that she had been trying to eat the
garbage. Charges are pending against the caregiver.
