Recently, I gave an interview with Nicole Scheidl, of Fit Minds, a program for enhanced communication between people with dementia and their caregivers. My topic for this interview was the power relationships between paid caregivers and family caregivers in the home setting. I blogged about this topic earlier this year in a post titled, “I’m a Professional Caregiver and You’re Not.“
Do you have stories of success or failure with power balances involving paid care workers in your home?
