Legal Documents Every Family Caregiver Needs
Work/Life Connections
As a family caregiver, you are responsible for taking care of your elderly loved one. This includes providing assistance with activities of daily living like eating, bathing, toileting, dressing, and other household chores. Family caregivers should be sure to have in place legal documents important to the lifelong care of the elder. Having access to important legal documents will help make caregiving easier for family caregivers.
The most common legal documents that every caregiver should have are:
FMLA
Instructions for employees and their supervisors on how to file FMLA (Family and Medical Leave Act) paperwork. Filing for FMLA allows qualified employees to take up to 12 weeks of leave for serious health conditions.
