Part of Carer wellbeing

A new grandchild, a wedding anniversary, finishing a jigsaw together. Personal milestones are about the person and the family, not about ticking off care tasks.
Family, not clinical
Keep milestones personal. Health changes are for conversations with the care team.
Include the person
Ask what milestones matter to them and how they'd like to mark them.
