Creating Support Systems for Family Caregivers |
|
|
|
According to The National Alliance for Caregiving (NAC) and AARP, an estimated 53 million family caregivers are providing care to a loved one. Their care and assistance enable their loved ones to live with dignity and remain in their communities. While many family caregivers find purpose and meaning in their journey; often, they experience isolation and feelings of stress and burnout. In this panel conversation, we will explore the importance of creating and finding systems of support that will help them in the journey. In addition, we will learn about the different resources available to them. |
