Caregiving for an older loved is a challenging role, no doubt. But did you know there are three surprising truths to caregiving for an older loved one that most people don’t know? Watch Pam Ostrowski, author, national speaker, and CEO of Alzheimer’s Family Consulting, as she walks through these caregiving truths and how to successfully address them. Thanks to Koelsch Communities for sponsoring this valuable webinar on caregiving. In this video on 3 Surprising Truths about Caregiving for an Older Loved One, we cover:

  • Caregiving challenges that we don’t expect and how to manage them
  • Managing being an overwhelmed caregiver (HELLO Guilt!)
  • Tips on how to manage the complexities of caregiving
Whether your loved one is affected by age-related health issues or disease, your role as caregiver is not necessarily one you signed up for. You certainly weren’t educated on how to handle all of the complex emotions, physical stressors, and potentially, financial implications that can come with caregiving. Sometimes, we caregivers feel anger, frustration, guilt, and resentment. There is nothing wrong with those feelings. What we want to help with is how to cope with those feelings so that they don’t eat away at your happiness and quality of life. That’s why we host monthly caregiving webinars with guidance, real-life caregiving stories, and tips you can implement today. It’s important for your mental and physical well-being as well as that of your loved on that you get educated on caregiving. So grab your notebook and have a listen! Remember, you can listen to this video while driving, cooking, or getting ready for your day. We’re all about helping YOU provide the best care possible for your loved one, while taking of yourself, maintaining strong relationships with family and friends, and enjoying your own life. Want more information and to talk with someone who has walked in your shoes? Let’s spend 30 minutes together to help you get your quality of life back. Reach out to Pam here.
