When your caring role changes or ends
Looking after someone may be a large and significant part of your life, but often your caring role will change over time, and may come to an end. This may be because the person you are looking after has recovered and no longer needs care, because they can no longer be cared for at home or because they have died.

We’ve updated our guidance to highlight some of the main changes that have been introduced during this period, highlighting where to turn for further sources of help and support.
Our COVID-19 guidance is highlighted in tinted boxes in Residential care, End of life planning and Bereavement.
