Does the caregiver have any restrictions for what they can personally do while the patient is at their appointments during the first few weeks of an outpatient ASCT? We were told by the hospital that they discourage caregivers from joining all appointments so they don't get burned out, so this is downtime for the caregiver. During this downtime, can the caregiver engage in normal activities? Curious what others experiences have been. Can the caregiver go exercise for example? What about going to lunch, a coffeeshop, the gym, or grocery shopping? Or do they have to stay in isolation. It seems they should be fine to.engage in some normal activities provided they use precautions around the patient, just like hospital staff.
