Families help residents by:

Communicating with the care team is crucial for the well-being of residents. Families play a vital role in ensuring that the care team is aware of the resident's needs, preferences, and any changes in their condition. By sharing insights about the resident's history, likes, dislikes, and emotional state, families can help facilitate personalized care that aligns with the resident's goals and desires. This collaboration enhances the overall quality of care and helps create a supportive environment that fosters the resident's comfort and engagement in their own care process.

Engaging with the care team allows families to better advocate for their loved ones, ensuring that their voices are heard and their needs are prioritized. This relationship between families and healthcare providers is essential for creating comprehensive care plans that truly reflect the individual's needs and wishes.
