Choosing the right Caregiver for your parents!!
When choosing the right Caregiver it is crucial that everyone be involved. Its a conversation that everyone who lives in the home should have this way everyone will be on the same page as to understanding and choosing the right service or individual for care.
As my parents became older we all had to make a decision as to finding the proper service to assist them when we all had to work. We sat down and spoke with their doctors first, next we sought out to find a good caseworker and last by me and sisters being Nurses, we did our own assessment as to what our parents would need.
After all we wanted nothing but the best for our parents for as long as they were alive, they gave us the best of everything before their health began to deteriorate .
We finally found a good service that provided us with a wonderful caregiver who was able to meet all of our parents needs, but we wanted to stress to her that when dealing with individuals with multiply health issues it can sometimes burnout a caregiver.
We wanted to make sure that everyone understood about Recognizing Caregiver Burnout.
It’s true, Caregivers can become burnout without realizing it themselves. They are always taking care of others that they sometimes forget to take care of themselvesĀ mentally and physically
I would advise every family who has the assistance from a Caregiver for their loved ones to take a moment to read Recognizing Caregiver Burnout. It is a great article that outlines what to look for.. I would suggest that every family note some of these symptoms, this way you and your family will be informed as to certain symptoms within your caregiver.
