Our caregiver is like a part of our family. I trust her understanding of the coronavirus situation and know she does everything possible to stay safe. However, she comes here primarily for my own respite and sanity. Should I discontinue her services for now?
She does everything possible to stay safe = oh my God, wonderful.
Should I discontinue her services for now? Absolutely not! Count your lucky stars. Your family is blessed to find such a person. I absolutely would not let her go and risk losing her once the dust settles. Do everything possible to help her and your mom stay safe.
So good to hear some good news.
I would not cut her hours unless she requests it. That might create a financial hardship that causes her to have to find work elsewhere, increasing her exposure.
Stay safe, healthy and sane.
