Read the case study, then answer the questions that follow.
Travis is a young carer and the primary carer for his mother, Trudi, whose condition has begun to deteriorate over the past few months. Some of Trudi’s friends also provide assistance by cooking meals and doing some of the housework. Her friends have come to know her food preferences well and together have developed a menu list for each week to ensure she eats a balanced diet, based on her preferred foods. Travis provides constant supervision and guidance for Trudi and has an almost intuitive awareness of her emotional and physical needs.
Travis is finding it hard to maintain his social network and keep up with his schoolwork and is thinking about dropping out of school completely. Bethany provides ongoing support to Travis and his mum, and they have begun talking about longer-term options for Trudi to move into an out-of-home care situation and how Travis feels about no longer taking on the full time caring responsibilities for her. Travis often comments that he feels a bit like someone who has grown up before his time and that many of his former friendship group simply don’t understand why he can’t come down to the beach with them at a moment’s notice. They simply don’t realize how demanding caregiving is, and why it is important that Travis spend the bulk of his time at home, in case he is needed. Lately, he has noticed that his friends have simply stopped ringing or texting him at all. Travis says that one of his friends has told him it’s just not normal for a young person to be caring for his mother. Bethany listens carefully to Travis and then makes some comments to check she has understood him correctly. They then begin to talk about what he might decide to do in the future.
Bethany shows Travis some information, application forms, and eligibility criteria guidelines about an out-of-home residential setting near his home, where his mother might be able to move and which would still allow Travis to visit frequently and be involved in her care. She explains that the service has clear guidelines about eligibility and a strong set of policies and guidelines as well as a code of conduct for workers so that Travis would know that she was being well cared for. There is an open-door policy, which means Travis could visit any time, and a strong commitment to encouraging community-based activities to maintain links with friends, family members, and the wider community. Travis decides to encourage his mother to consider the option of out-of-home residential care, so he meets with Trudi, Bethany, and a manager from the setting to begin discussing the options.
Question:
1. What are Trudi’s friends’ rights, roles, and responsibilities in this situation? (Approx. 70 words).
