Hi Little- Jo 

Im am very sorry to hear about your mum. Im in a similar situation with my dad and its very daunting. 3 times a day really isnt much depending on the level of your mums mobility. My dad is wheelchair bound and has 4 visits a day. So thats around 4 hours between visits and it can be difficult if he needs to loo or wants a nap. Do you live close? as if you could do the "first visit" in the mornings and spread out the 3 carer visits perhaps? Or an evening visit. 

Mcmillan are lovely and might be able to offer further advise. They look at what benefits your mum may be entitled to and those benefits could be used for more care.

All the best
