That's rough. What they need is more day to day supervision than you yourself can perform.
So, figure out how to hire someone to look after them. SomeoneS might be a better choice of words.
They will need help with day-to-day stuff; and also help with organizational, book-keeping type stuff.If they have any money, I'd recommend securing a power of attorney over their affairs (attendent with its own difficulties, granted) so some schmuck doesn't rip them off.
