Generally speaking, as a caregiver it’s obligatory to provide a safe and healthy space, free from physical, emotional, and financial abuse. The care you provide will mostly be the same, however, when it comes to more private assistance like bathing and dressing it’s always important to have clear and established communication and boundaries about what is acceptable to you and your senior. Additionally, family members are usually preferred to administer medication as opposed to non-related parties. Finally, a durable power of attorney can help establish these procedures, especially if the person being cared for cannot make accurate decisions about their own health and well-being.
