My parent is elderly and ill. Trying to keep him out of the hospital but can't bring him into our homes because of the virus. Going a few times a day to check vitals, feed, give medication. It's really weighing on me. I am walking a mile on shabbos to go for my slot. Every day trying to cook special foods for him and neglecting my own kids hungry asks. My family is feeling the pinch with me working full time, dh also working full time with remote meetings all day, kids unscheduled and pesach is supposed to happen. The thought of pesach like this is hard.
Are there any places that can help with maybe special food for him to be sent or someone to visit and give him his meds at some points? In boro park.

Is he more at risk because you are going out of your house to take care of him.
Maybe ask if you should move him into your home, if everyone is clear of the virus

Can you try getting an aide till the pandemic is over??
People coming and going into their house is more dangerous than bringing him to one house to stay at. But an aide would be the best idea.
