Finding homestays for people convalescing

Small business start-up in Wellington, Caring Stay aims to provide safe homes for people to recuperate from illness. Founder, Lizzie Scott is currently vetting home owners willing to provide accommodation - particularly to patients who are being discharged from hospital, but who may still need support as they recover from surgery. In effect it is a home-stay offering short term care for people, who may feel vulnerable about returning to their own homes. Lizzie Scott says she's already heard from an oncology clinic seeking places for out of town patients to stay.
