Elder care workshop on the empowered caregiver: Building the foundations of caregiving

Caring for someone living with dementia brings a unique set of challenges and rewards. With the right help and support, you can empower yourself to provide quality care while managing your well-being. Topics in the program include (1) the role of a caregiver and changes you may experience (2) using a person-centered care approach (3) building a support team and (4) managing caregiver stress. While this program will focus on caregiving for someone with dementia, many of the principles that will be shared can be universally applied to caregiving in general.
