Understanding Caregiver Stress and Self-Care Strategies

June 10 at 2 PM
While taking care of a friend or family member may be a labor of love, it can also be extremely stressful. This presentation will discuss the physical, emotional, and financial stressors that caregivers may face. We will also explore tips and strategies for self-care.
