What responsibilities and daily tasks does a live-in caregiver usually have when working with seniors at home?
I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately because my family is considering hiring a live-in caregiver for my grandmother. She’s still quite independent, but after a small fall last month we realized it might be safer if someone stayed with her during the day and night. The thing is, I’m not exactly sure what a live-in caregiver usually does on a daily basis. Is it mostly helping with things like cooking, medication reminders, and keeping the house tidy, or do they also help with companionship and activities? I’d really like to hear from people who have experience with this because I want to understand what the routine normally looks like before we make a decision.
