コロナ対策と介護 Corona measures and long-term care

私には車いす生活のおばあちゃんがいます。ある日脳梗塞で倒れ、左半身がマヒしています。そのため、介護施設の利用は必須になっています。

　そんな中、母が急用で実家に帰省しました。規則で県外移動者との接触があった場合、2週間は施設を利用できないそうです。父母はお婆ちゃんの世話をするため、休みの都合を合わせるのに苦労しています。施設に任せていたため、お風呂にさえ入れられない可能性もあります。一方で、介護施設の職員さんも外食は一切禁止など厳しい規則があるようです。

　隠れたコロナの影響って本当に多いですね。

I have a grandma who lives in a wheelchair. One day I collapsed due to a cerebral infarction and my left half is paralyzed. Therefore, the use of long-term care facilities is essential.

Meanwhile, my mother urgently went home to her parents' house. According to the rules, if there is contact with a person who moves outside the prefecture, the facility cannot be used for two weeks. My parents are having a hard time adjusting their holidays to take care of my grandmother. Since it was left to the facility, it may not even be possible to take a bath. Even so, it seems that the staff of long-term care facilities have strict rules such as prohibiting eating out at all.

The influence of the hidden corona is really large.
