The Ethics of Caregiving Should I? What if I don’t? How do I know? The ethics of caregiving—the worry over what’s right and what’s ethical can plague you. And, it may feel like the whole world is waiting and watching for your decision. The pressure is awful. We’ve done our best to offer perspectives to help you decide what’s best for your care recipient, for your family and for yourself. As you face decisions, keep in mind your values, your family’s values, your religious beliefs, and your own personal moral code, as well as your care recipient’s. Each caregiving situation has a nuance that makes it different—and makes it possible for only you to determine what’s best in your situation. As you face decisions, gather information, ask for insights from others who have faced a similar situation, and use the expertise of health care professionals to weigh the pros and cons. Perhaps you alone can make the decision, but know that you have support and company during the decision-making process.
