What does it mean to be a Family Caregiver?
Whether you care for a relative due to aging, chronic physical or cognitive disease, or differences in ability, you are a family caregiver.
You may be the only one or one of several providing care. You could live locally to your care recipient or long distance.
Perhaps you're just beginning to realize a family member or friend needs more help.
You may be overwhelmed with the tasks and responsibilities of caregiving, and yet it seems like no one notices you're drowning.
Or maybe your caregiving journey is now over, and you're feeling shell shocked and uncertain about how to move forward.
No matter where you are, you have a story, and choices to make.
We spend so much time focusing on our care recipient (as it should be). As the experience intensifies, it's no wonder our own needs get lost along the way.
What’s the best next step for you?
No one knows better than you do. My role is to help family caregivers find what works for them, based on circumstances, values, and what's most important to them as an individual and caregiver.
No matter where you are, you deserve care too.
