@sixfigurecaregiver: Private caregivers, stop feeling guilty for charging for ALL that you do. You’re not “just sitting with somebody.” You may be: • Bathing & showering • Grooming & personal hygiene • Dressing & undressing • Oral care & denture care • Toileting & incontinent care • Changing briefs & linens • Repositioning & turning • Transfers & mobility assistance • Hoyer lift assistance • Fall prevention & safety monitoring • Feeding & meal assistance • Cooking & meal preparation • Medication reminders • Checking vital signs when appropriate • Dementia & memory-care support • Companionship & emotional support • Appointment assistance • Transportation & errands • Grocery shopping • Light housekeeping • Laundry & changing bed linens • Organizing the client’s space • Helping with exercises/walking • Overnight supervision • Hospital companionship/1-on-1 care • Communicating changes to the family • Keeping notes/documentation • Following the care plan • Providing respite so the family can rest • Being the eyes and ears when family isn’t there And let’s not forget the responsibility that comes with caring for another human being. So NO—you should not feel guilty for charging appropriately for your time, experience, skills, and level of care. Caregiving is a service. Your experience has value. PRICE ACCORDINGLY.
