The COVID-19 pandemic is forcing caregivers to make some touch decisions about how to help their loved ones. Elizabeth Downing, with Timesavers, a non-medical in-home healthcre provider in Bowling Green, recommends families prepare a healthcare roadmap.
"Know your trusted advisors, your trusted professionals. Know who to go to, who can tie you in to all those things, and help you navigate. It's a path that is ever changing and having some kind of plan to start is just, to me, the most imporatnt thing you can have," she said.
Downing says fears of contracting the coronavirus are leading to more people choosing in-home healthcare over rehabilitation and skilled nursing facilities.
