Helping to care for terminal relative

Hi ,

there is advice from carers uk here that I hope will answer your question and hopefully reassure your husband.

Thanks so much Steve. That’s a  great help

Hi Lou

It's wonderful thing that you've realised that your cousin needs a break from looking after your aunt and want to help out.

Your husband is perfectly correct you could be stopped by the police but as your travel falls into one of the acceptable reasons which is "any medical need, to provide care or to help a vulnerable person" you just need to inform the police office of this and he should let you proceed without any problems.

Before setting off ask yourself 

Am I showing any signs of the virus, if any doubt don't go.

If you are okay remember to take your hand sanitiser kit with you, spray your hands as soon as you enter the front door and keep washing your hands at regular intervals to keep both yourself and aunt safe.

I hope giving your cousin a break will recharge the batteries and he/she will find a safe self isolating room where no interaction with yourself  is possible.

Take care and keep safe.

Ian.
