The role of caregiver, while often rewarding, can also take a tremendous toll on individuals both emotionally and physically. It is critical that caregivers look after themselves as well as the person in their care. This principle is particularly important for members of the sandwich generation who are juggling both elder and child care responsibilities. Whether participants are already caring for an aging family member or plan to take on this role in the future, this seminar will provide important information to consider.

With an aging population, elder care responsibilities are now becoming a reality for an increasing number of people. This multifaceted role is quite different from any other, and many individuals may find it very challenging to investigate and learn about the critical issues they will face as a caregiver for older loved ones. This seminar will enhance caregivers’ decision-making ability and increase their likelihood of experiencing caregiving as a positive and rewarding role.
