Many adult children between the ages of 30 and 45 are looking for adequate and trustworthy care for their sick and/or elderly parents. Let's face it, we can't quit our job to take care of our parents, even if some people like it, but how will they pay the bill? Some children can and must have their parents in facilities that provide round-the-clock care, and then some children think their parents/parents are best left in their own comfortable environment and at home. Have the nurse/caretaker come home and provide regular care.
I, in the face of this challenge, I provided my mother with a person diagnosed with a rare cancer. When I was in the US Army, the fourth stage came to my place so that I could take care of it. She and my sister, who is 8 years old... she refused sadly because she felt that she would be a burden on my military career. Ok, I was eventually fired because of family difficulties and moved into her caregiver with my mother. That journey was the reason why I became a nurse. I remember that she always asked me to promise never to put her at home. I insisted on this!
As a caregiver of a caring person, there is more mental work than anything else, and sometimes these caregivers need to rest! Keep in mind that some people are actually unhealthy in their home/environment because it promotes independence, which is a top priority for older people or people with long-term illnesses. My experience is as a long-term care facility and has the experience of taking care of my mother at home, suggesting, if possible, leaving your loved ones at home and hiring people to take care of them at home! They all have their own strengths and weaknesses, but the advantages go beyond the pros and cons. Find someone you can trust to take care of your loved ones, as if they are their own family members or loved ones, people with personal experiences, starting from the sunset of your interview, you think they are honest and reliable people. If you are the only caregiver, you can temporarily relieve it. We all need to take a break. We should not feel that we neglect or give up our duties. This is a healthy choice. "Hey," I need a little time! "This is a healthy choice that will affect you and the people you love, in a positive way... trust!
