How Can Caregivers Support ADLs for Cancer Patients?
Caregivers play a crucial role in supporting cancer patients with ADLs. Here are some ways caregivers can help:
Provide Emotional Support: Offer encouragement and listen to the patient's concerns. Assist with Tasks: Help with bathing, dressing, and other tasks as needed, while encouraging independence when possible. Monitor Health: Keep an eye on any changes in the patient's ability to perform ADLs and report them to the healthcare team. Coordinate Care: Arrange for professional help, such as home health aides, if necessary.
