Which of the following is an example of a prohibited household task under Attendant Care?

• A. Major carpet cleaning
• B. Cooking a simple meal
• C. Vacuuming
• D. Doing laundry

Answer: (A)

In Attendant Care, the aim is to help with everyday activities that support independence while avoiding tasks that require specialized skills or professional services. Major carpet cleaning is not within scope because it involves heavy equipment, chemical use, moisture management, and potential safety risks that require trained professionals. The other tasks—cooking a simple meal, vacuuming, and doing laundry—are typical daily activities a Direct Care Worker can assist with, since they involve routine domestic tasks that can be safely supported with proper safety practices.
