Description
While there are many educational programs for family caregivers available, few recognize their emotional and self-care needs. This session will introduce four strategies caregivers can use to move their health journey forward.
Learning Objectives:
- Recognize what overwhelm sounds like in the words of family caregivers.
- List two things common to most caregivers whose lack of self-care places them at higher health risk.
- Recommend strategies family caregivers can use to reduce their sense of overwhelm and move toward health.
