Elderly care?
Linds asked:
I just started caring for a 92 year old women who is doing very good for her age. She does a lot on her own and i am maily there for companionship.
But she does a little yard work and sweeps outside and cleans a lot.
She only gets a shower on fridays tho. And i think she needs to take on at least 3 days..should i tell her?

The one bath week habit.

You should suggest it in a nice upbeat way. Try saying, “how about a nice shower, that sound relaxing”, or but her some fancy shower gel, be nice, she is 92 and you will be old some day too.

An odor maybe let it think by telling her that she only takes one per week and offer to help her why.

The elderly do not need to bath as often as younger people. their skin gets very dry. She needs to wash her bottom and under her arms at least three times a week. Tell her it will keep her from getting the skin disease that is going around.

The shower solve that odor maybe she does not have that by offering.
For shower solve that when she does not have that by offering.
