Powerful Tools for Caregivers classes help caregivers take better care of themselves while caring for a friend or relative. Whether you provide care for a spouse, partner, parent, friend, or a child with special needs; at home or in a care facility, whether down the block or miles away, yours is an important role. This course is for family caregivers like you!
This six-week class series gives you the confidence and support to better care for your loved one – and yourself. The classes give caregivers tools to help:
• Reduce stress
• Improve self-confidence
• Manage time, set goals, and solve problems
• Better ways to communicate your feelings
• Make tough decisions
• Locate helpful resources
In the class, caregivers receive a free copy of The Caregiver Helpbook, which follows the curriculum and provides additional tools to address specific caregiver issues.
