If you are involved in the care of aging parents or loved ones amidst other responsibilities yours can be a daunting task. We hope you as the caregiver will see the importance of taking care of yourself.
In this Family Caregiver Alliance (FCA) video, gerontologist Caitlin Morgan discusses how family caregivers can take care of themselves, and how self-care can help them continue successfully in their role as caregivers. She identifies the signs of caregiver burnout and offers self-care solutions such as maintaining social ties, exercising and eating healthy, attending caregiver support groups, and using respite care from home care providers as a break from caregiving.
