Cohousing-L Mailing List: Caring for residents

[Richard L Kohlhaas (rlkohl]

At Casa Verde, we have organized a committee to investigate coordinating 
assistance, such as meals, driving, shopping, help with 
housework, personal care, etc, for members who are (temporarily) disabled due 
to injury, illness, etc. .

We have recognized potential problems, e.g. how long is "temporary", what about 
mental illness, legal liability.

Have any other communities dealt with this type of situation?
