Gesture & etiquette
Make a slight bow before leaving. Pause at the doorway, make eye contact, and smile before fully exiting — this final moment of connection matters deeply to many seniors.
Always announce your departure and confirm your return time. Seniors who feel anxious about being alone are reassured knowing when staff will return. Yukkuri signals you are not rushing them.
