Selecting the other parent as the EOR fosters collaborative decision-making and ensures coordinated care for their son. Both parents are actively involved in their son's care and possess complementary skills, knowledge, and perspectives. The EOR parent, with their firsthand experience and expertise, can actively participate in care planning, medication management, and coordination of medical appointments. This collaborative approach promotes a comprehensive and integrated care experience, minimizing the risk of fragmented or disjointed care. In contrast, a non-live-in EOR may lack the same level of insight and may face challenges in effectively collaborating and coordinating care with the husband and wife, potentially compromising the quality and effectiveness of their son's care.
