Your Proactive Caregiver Advocate: Caregivers: Consideration for Elderly Skin Care

As we get older, so does our skin. The skin, also called the epidermis, is the outermost layer of the body. We think in detail about our skin when we are young and self-sufficient. However, as a caregiver and responsible for others' care, we must think about detailed skin care practices in the elderly. As a caregiver, your role is to pay attention to the skin of your loved one. Start at the head and finish under the bottom of the feet. No matter your situation, skincare is a part of the caregiving journey.  Pay Attention.
