Not the main carer

Even though you may not be the Main Carer you may still have concerns yourself.
If you are concerned about someone and provide some care and support, but do not have the final say on making decisions as that person's carer - then this section is for you.

Things worth bearing in mind include:
  • Working together with Main Carer
  • Being positive
  • Managing disagreements
  • Supporting each other
  • Keeping the Main Carer informed
  • Be clear on what you can and cannot do
  • Be clear on how much responsibility you have
  • Be open, discuss with others too
  • Look after yourself

Your local West Sussex Carers Network would be happy to hear from you.
