Plan personal care with dignity and clear expectations
Personal care involves a person's space, privacy, and preferences. Explain how they like to be assisted and which activities they want to continue doing themselves. Before visits start, agree on the tasks included, the assistance needed for mobility, and any instructions that must come from the clinical team. Caregiver support and nursing care have different responsibilities; the consult helps clarify the right fit.
Questions for your Caring Consult
- What help is needed with washing, dressing, meals, or moving around?
- Does a clinician need to assess any tasks before care starts?
- What language, routine, and personal preferences should the caregiver know?
