The diverse responsibilities of a family caregiver can be overwhelming
Family members often take on many roles: personal care assistant, nurse, therapist, nutritionist, chef, parents, treasurer, family member… all at the same time. And this 24/7 around the clock work can be overwhelming and exhausting, especially when caregivers put the needs and interests of their loved ones before themselves and neglect self-care.
Usually family caregivers are not trained professionals and may not be well-equipped with the skills and knowledge to provide the best care. This can be stressful for both you and your loved ones. Over time, cumulated stress can lead to physical, emotional and mental exhaustion and burnout.
Besides putting risk on our health, caregiver burnout also affects the quality of care that our loved one receives.
Caregiving is a physically and emotionally demanding work, but remember that you do not need to do all alone. Many forms of help are available. Now simply take your first step and reach out.
