“Elder Caregiving: A Balancing Act”
Shouldering the responsibility for an older family member’s well-being often means that the caregiver’s own health suffers. Our virtual session will provide insight from the experts into how to care for the elders in your life -- while also caring for yourself:
- What’s the impact of being a primary caregiver? Learn how is one’s health affected, and when to ask for help and seek support.
- Discuss the importance of maintaining a positive mindset, as well as tools to relieve stress and promote self-care.
- Learn about community-based services that are available to support caregivers.
