It\u2019s hard to believe, but you might be doing more for your senior than she really needs for you to do. When you do that too long, she may start to lose more of her capabilities than you expect. The last thing you want to do is fast track any loss of skill.<\/p>\n
Being Able to Keep Doing Tasks Is Important<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s easy to forget this but feeling empowered and being able to do specific tasks goes hand in hand. If you\u2019re taking over a lot of the tasks that your senior does on a regular basis, that can be a problem. She may start to lose some of those skills along the way and then she won\u2019t be able to do them if she needs to. If there are tasks your senior still can do, she should as long as it\u2019s safe for her to be doing so.<\/p>\n
