Denver, CO – Family caregivers with little experience can feel lost when trying to care for elderly parents or spouses. Bearing the responsibility of ongoing care and trying to decide what is best for loved ones can be challenging when there is no roadmap or easy path to success.
The needs of each caregiving situation are different. Caregiver expert Pamela D Wilson shares where family caregivers can find support in a new video released this week. The uncertainty of "what might happen next" has many caregivers placing their careers and lives on hold.
Education and Knowledge Provide a Path of Support for Family Caregivers
Because the role of a caregiver impacts so many parts of life, caregivers benefit from seeking support through educational programs, podcasts, videos, articles, support groups, and other resources. Education and knowledge provide a path to navigating relationships with family, healthcare providers, social service organizations, and others who impact family care situations.
Many family members— helping other family members with day-to-day issues and health—don't place themselves in the role of a caregiver. Even though their actions confirm accepting the responsibility. In addition, self-management of health, which is a new focus of healthcare systems, can impose a higher workload on overwhelmed caregivers due to the expectation of devoting more time to support loved ones with chronic diseases.
Resources for Caregivers Who Burn the Candle at Both Ends
Other aspects of life like working multiple jobs, having their own health problems, raising children, housing concerns, access to healthy foods, transportation, and living in a safe neighborhood add stress to the lives of family caregivers. Caring for an elderly parent with multiple health issues and juggling other aspects of life is emotionally and physically exhausting. It's no wonder family caregivers burn the candle at both ends.
Wilson's newly released video and the information available on her website, including an extensive online course, provide detailed step-by-step education and instructions to guide family caregivers through uncertainty and challenging times. She responds to answers to questions that caregivers ask with videos on her YouTube Channel and worldwide podcast, The Caring Generation.
