A caregiver’s job can change at a moment’s notice. It may be helping them move from their bed to a chair to escorting to a doctor's appointment. Because of this, it’s even more important to understand the range of roles and responsibilities you may need to take on during your time as a caregiver
*******Main Duties and Responsibilities*********
Meal Preparation:
An important aspect of caregiver duties and responsibilities is meal preparation. You don’t need to be a top-rate chef to prepare basic meals for the elderly. Basic cooking skills will provide them with the snacks and meals they can live on while at home. Having the meals ready can also prevent injuries as they will not have to prepare it themselves.
Household Chores:
Laundry, dishes, mopping, and sweeping are chores most of us do with ease regularly. For seniors, these simple tasks become incredibly challenging.
Hygiene Care:
Hygiene is incredibly personal. Part of your caregiver duties will be to assist seniors with bathing, dressing, and even with the restroom when needed. Compassionate handling is paramount to maintaining an individual’s dignity.
Mobility:
Personal care needs vary depending upon the needs of each individual, but they can also change weekly or even daily. Limited mobility for the senior, while challenging for them, can also be physically challenging for the carer. Knowing the full details of physical care needs can help you make the best decisions for yourself and those while you perform the duties of your caregiver job.
Administer Medication:
One of your caregiver duties and responsibilities could be to make sure that they have an appropriate amount of medication and encourage them to take medication when directed by a health professional.
