People who care (or expect to care) for an aging family member or friend.
Senior care professionals and others concerned with the impact of caregiving

North Central Texas counties served: Collin, Denton, Erath, Hunt, Kaufman, Navarro, Palo Pinto, Parker, Rockwall, Somervell and Wise.

What Will Attendees Gain?

Participants will gain information, encouragement, and resources to:

Prepare for what may be next.
Address concerns that effect physical, emotional, work, and financial well-being.
Resolve common challenges before, during, and after caregiving.
Consider ways to transition successfully into a life after caregiving.

Caregiving Navigation sessions are inspired by the 6 Stages of Caregiving, an eye-opening concept developed by caregiving expert Denise M. Brown.

As we move through each stage, our role, purpose, and resource needs change.

Freshman

Entrenched

Pragmatic

Transitioning

Godspeed

June 5, 2019: The 6 Stages of Caregiving

Hosted by: Caregiving Heroes of First UMC Coppell

Join us for a presentation of The Six Stages of Caregiving on Wednesday, June 5 at 7 p.m. (Room 306) at the First United Methodist Church Coppell.

The Six Stages of Caregiving is an innovative concept developed by family caregiving expert Denise M. Brown.

As we move through each stage, our role and relationship with our caree changes. We can better adjust to the stress and challenges of providing care when we understand our changing roles and purpose.

Many thanks to Caregiving Heroes for your support of family caregivers in the community!
