Freeing a Daughter to be a Daughter

Filed under: Care Manager Connections — LivHOME @ 8:07 pm

Finding the right caregiving balance can be the most important job a Care Manager does for a senior and his or her family.

Susan Peterson, a LivHOME Care Manager in the Metro D.C. area, demonstrated this as she helped two daughters care for their nearly 90-year-old father – taking the pressure off of them to be full-time caregivers as well as daughters.

The father, who suffers from moderate dementia, clearly needed help in order to remain at home safely and with dignity.
