He sleeps most of the day, complains he is very tired. But he stays up most of the night. We cannot get him to stay awake during the day. I visited my daughter about 50 miles away and when I came back, it seemed like he had aged so much. Maybe it is my imagination.

Does anyone know if this is mandatory in NY to pay time and a half and vacation pay to a live in caregiver, or is this between the employer and the caregiver? Does anyone pay their caregiver those extras? Thanks!
