Letter: 'Want to be really helpful when a caregiver friend tells you their loved one is now in hospice? Let them know what you can do.'
The nurse visits are weekly, increasing in frequency as needed, and range from 15 minutes to over an hour. The CNAs perform their duties one to seven times a week, in less than an hour. There are hospice volunteers who will come to give you a 1 — 3 hour break — if one is available.Want to be really helpful when a caregiver friend tells you their loved one is now in hospice? Let them know what you can do.
And remember, sometimes the caregiver needs their “space,” wants to shovel their snow, to do the “busy work” to escape, so ask before stepping in. And, it is OK if you can’t help. Do check in from time to time and ask how they are doing. If the caregiver is OK, so too is the caregivee.
