Powerful Tools for Caregivers

ONLINE from your home every Wednesday, September 6, 13, 20, 27 and October 4, and 11

Do you struggle to balance life while caregiving for a loved one?

This free, six-week educational program focuses on the needs of family caregivers of someone with a chronic illness and/or dementia. Family caregivers develop a variety of self-care tools to:
- Reduce personal stress
- Change negative self-talk
- Communicate their needs to family members and healthcare providers
- Communicate more effectively in challenging situations
- Deal with difficult feelings
- Make tough caregiving decisions
Class participants also receive a copy of The Caregiver Helpbook, developed specifically for the class.
Space is limited and registration is required. Volunteer respite may be available upon request; inquire with Eve at your earliest convenience if your loved one cannot be left alone while you are in class.

To register, contact Eve at 585-287-6398 or use link below.

Sponsored by: Monroe County Caregiver Resource Center at Lifespan and the Finger Lakes Alzheimer’s Caregiver Institute at Lifespan. Funded in part by Monroe County Office for the Aging and the NYS Department of Health.
