In Assisted living do the personal caregivers wipe the resident after using toilet?

Each personal caregiver's responsilbities are different. It depends upon the needs of the resident. Assisted living care can be much different than nursing home care. Assisted living basically means they require assistance with some of their daily activities (not necessarily hygiene after toileting). Nursing homes generally provide much more care than assisted because the resident is in an advanced level of being unable to perform their daily activities.
