Family caregivers face many challenges when faced with caring for a family member and many have little to no where to go to get the non-professional information that is sometimes needed to get through the day.
This is a group created to let Family Caregivers (children, parents, family members…etc) of the sick or aging, come together, meetup and talk about the different issues and stresses they have caring for their loved one, and solutions they have used or employed to help with this.
The group will be about sharing information, or giving recommendations that others have used and have helped them maintain stability either in the family member’s care or in the home.
Its for the “Sandwich generation” (care-givers taking care of their children and aging parents at the same time), for those having to provide care by themselves for different reasons, for those that know of someone, a friend, colleague that is a family caregiver, and for those that want to share what they have done or did while caring for their sick or aging family member that made the experience more positive.
Good sharing everyone!
