When do you say goodbye to someone in geriatric care?

I am a 29 year old female and my grandma is in geriatric care. When do you say goodbye to someone in geriatric care?

Not sure what you mean by goodbye - to the person? Like when you have a visit with them and you are about to leave? Unless your grandma has advanced dementia, and even then, treat her like you would treat anyone else when saying goodbye :) with love and dignity.

Thanks,
