いいえ、大丈夫です。おやすみなさい。
いいえ、だいじょうぶです。おやすみなさい。
No, I'm fine. Good night.
Gesture & etiquette
Dim the lights to a comfortable level before asking. Stand at the doorway rather than beside the bed to give a sense of personal space. Smile warmly and bow slightly as you say good night.
End-of-day routines create a sense of predictability that is deeply comforting for seniors. Always offer a final check before leaving for the night — never assume all is well. The offer itself, even when declined, communicates ongoing care.
