Introduction to Professionalism in Caregiving
Professionalism means showing respect, responsibility, and integrity in your role as a caregiver. It builds trust with clients, families, and agencies, and ensures high-quality care. Caregivers are part of a team that includes the agency and client; understanding your role helps avoid confusion and conflict. Respecting the agency-client-caregiver triangle means honoring boundaries and communication protocols.
