It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.

Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
Ditto to Florida's questions. Also, have you been reporting it to your employer as it was happening or close to when it started to happen? Your employer can only act on the information they are given. You should asked to be reassigned. If they don't do this you may need to take further actions.
Sorry, but I think it is our own responsibility to stand up and defend ourselves against sexual harassment. We remove ourselves from the situation and we call the police. It is after all your body.
If he is assaulting you why would you keep going back? Sorry, I am very leary about the definition of sexual harassment or abuse in 2020, when people say they have been sexually abused because they were asked to go out, it has crossed a line that makes all allegations questionable. Because I come from a world that you deal with the perp right now, the 1st time and you stay away from them. You don't go back and let yourself be treated abusively and get sexually assaulted.
Ten days ago you asked about sexual harassment. Did you talk to your supervisor? Did you ask to be reassigned?
No, your agency is not responsible for the acts of a client. If he was a fellow employee then by law your employer would have to do something. With a client, you as the caregiver put him in his place or you ask to be reassigned. If ur employer won't reassign you then start looking for another agency to work for. Really, if this client has done this before, the agency could drop him.
I am sorry you are experiencing this. But I would think in your profession it happens all the time. Maybe some of your fellow employees can tell u how to handle a person like this. Maybe u should only care for women.
Where is your personal responsibility in all of this? Have you not had proper training? A professional caregiver should know how to respond when something like this happens. Have you contacted your employer? If you did, what did they say? If you didn’t, WHY NOT? Why do you continue to work for this person of the working conditions are unacceptable to you? You have to help yourself here. And no, the agency isn’t responsible for your client. They are responsible for you. But they can’t help you if you won’t help yourself first.
According to your profile, you are caring for William who's 60 years old and living at home. Is he the client who's sexually harassing you?
Who cares if the Agency you work for is responsible for this behavior or not? In the end, all that matters is you get OUT of there, quit the job, and go find another one, immediately, with or without this Agency's help. In the healthcare arena right now, you can get any number of jobs in any number of places where you won't be treated inappropriately. And, if you are, you'll quit THAT job too. Because no job on earth is worth being mistreated for.
Take responsibility for YOURSELF now, and do what's right for you.

There is no excuse for abuse, EVER!
