When one caregiver isn't enough: My story.
Last year,I cared for a client with advanced dementia. Who was ofen aggressive and even tried to remove her PEG tube.
Caring for her at home was extremely stressful there was no time to sit down not even for a second.
Her family had a caregiver from an caregiver agency for the night shift,but she can't sleep and medication for her didn't work anymore and her care was just as demanding at night as it was during the day.
It was a very difficult decision for her family to move her into frailcare but it was the right choice for her safety and wellbeing also for her loved ones.
Experiences like this remind me why compassionate professional caregiving matters so much.🦋💕
