About meal preparation
Cooking or preparing meals, leaving drinks within reach, a bit of batch cooking, washing up, and noticing whether food is actually being eaten.
Questions families ask
Can a carer cook to a special diet?
Many can. Explain it clearly, and if there's advice from a speech and language therapist about swallowing, share it.
Who buys the food?
Agree it at the start: either you do the shopping, or the carer does and you pay them back against receipts.
What if Dad keeps skipping meals?
A carer can encourage him, and sitting down to eat together often helps. Losing weight without trying is worth mentioning to the GP.
