This form is a sample of an agreement between an elderly or disabled client and a Caregiver who operates as an independent contractor and provides personnel to assist Client to live at home and to have as much control over the home environment and life as possible under the circumstances. Caregiver's personnel also assist Client with the activities of daily living, scheduling medication, assistance with mobility, accompanying Client on errands and appointments, and such other services as agreed between Client and Caregiver.
In this agreement, Client waives damages for simple negligence of Caregiver, but not gross negligence or misconduct that is intentional or criminal in nature. Courts generally will not enforce waivers of this type of misconduct since such a waiver would be deemed to be against public policy because it would encourage dangerous and illegal behavior.

The major concepts of the theory of caregiving dynamics are commitment, expectation management, and role negotiation. Commitment is enduring caregiver responsibility that inspires life changes to make the patient a priority.
Caregiver burden is divided into objective burden and subjective burden. Objective burden is the physical effort required to help the dependent person throughout the day in direct self-care, supervision, or IADLs. Subjective burden is divided into personal strain and role strain.
The conceptual framework for caregiver burden was developed based on a literature review 141516 and includes five core dimensions of caregiving burden, each with two attributes: patient's dependency, physical health, psychological health, social health, and financial status (Figure 1).
Seven theoretical frameworks address patient outcome including the patient's perception or the patient's evaluation of healthcare professional performance regarding patient health status, patient satisfaction, the continuity of care, patient safety, efficiency, efficacy, availability, accessibility, and compatibility.
Three broad theoretical models underpin dementia care policy (as well as practice and research): biomedical, psycho-social and social-gerontological. These are critically assessed and discussed in relation to illustrative examples of dementia policy across three policy regions of the devolved UK.
