Morning Routine:
A caregiver’s day starts with a focus on preparation. Before heading to their assigned care home or private home setting, caregivers check their shift schedules and review any updates related to the residents they will be caring for. After donning their uniform and gathering necessary materials, they’re ready to start the day with a mindset of compassion and professionalism.
A Typical Shift:
Once they arrive, caregivers immediately get to work, focusing on the well-being of each resident. The day might involve helping residents with personal care tasks like bathing, dressing, and grooming. In addition, caregivers manage medication administration, making sure everything is timely and correctly documented. Companionship is another essential part of the job, providing emotional support through conversation and activities that bring joy to residents. Every action is carefully recorded to ensure continuity of care and accountability.
