    Caregivers and covid

    I am disabled and need help with all transfers. My husband is my main caregiver, and I have caregivers come for 5 hours a day M - F. They will not come here if either of us has Covid. He could probably take care of me if I wasn't too sick, but I could never take care of him. I have Medicare and long term care insurance. I haven't found any nursing facility that will care me if I get Covid.
    Who will care for us if one or both of us gets Covid, and we can't provide for ourselves?
    Thanks for any ideas.

    Could you try another home care company? Although not ideal I can't imagine they can't use the same protective measures as hospital staff have been using the entire pandemic to continue caring for their patients.

    This is a personal choice but I'm still very limited with unmasked social situations as I have no interest in getting COVID if I can avoid it.
    He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion.
