Benefits of a Caregiver Support Group
Caring for a loved one - whether it is your spouse, mom/dad, or another family member - can take an emotional & physical toll. The demands of your loved one’s condition, which can include difficult behavior, new routines, and challenging situations, will require new tips and techniques to get through each day.
In a caregiver support group, you can meet with other caregivers in a similar situation, sharing what has worked for them. These groups can also be a safe space to share your feelings, frustrations, and challenges you are facing.
Many caregiver support groups meet monthly and provide new perspectives and tools to help you navigate your role as a caregiver. And the people you meet in a group can become the core of your support network, whom you can rely on for advice and support during difficult days.
