Starting point
Example dishes, household size and meal counts are clearer than a broad request for varied cooking. Add serving times and responsibility for ingredients, then discuss the skills required.
when only part of the home is occupied
Identify occupied and closed rooms, agreeing care frequency rather than covering every space daily.
a practical task sheet
Note each duty, its location, timing and one completion criterion, then review the sheet with the person carrying it out.
