The delegating caregiver is the type of person who is dynamic, confident, and a leader. This individual is the least hands-on because he or she assigns and hires others to provide the necessary care. You may be uncomfortable with the necessary tasks or realize that others are infinitely more qualified to do this than you are.

I see myself as a delegate as my professional background does not include anything resembling health care. I shied away from certain tasks (e.g., I balked at the very idea of giving either of my parents a bath). Assigning certain responsibilities to me would have been both inappropriate and unsafe for my parents. Delegating caregivers often are more financially able to hire the extra help.
