Calls this week were received on the website call-in line by caregivers who listen to this podcast. Listen and hear advice given to callers who have the following concerns/questions:
• Wife whose husband just started dialysis has days when he is weak and can not assist much with his care. Wife has a back injury and desires suggestions on how to help him.
•Daughter who assists mother who has had a stroke, states mother is receiving home health therapy but doesn’t appear to be getting stronger and mother does not feel safe with daughter walking her. Daughter desires to know what to do.
• Son, who lives out of town, realizes that his mother is struggling to put his dad’s wheelchair into the car to go on appointments. Son desires suggestions on options available.
• Sister, who is primary caregiver for mother, has concerns that her sister who comes from out of town to help, is doing too much for her mother when she helps their mother.
