[Resource] Reducing Caregiver Stress
If you or someone you know is exhibiting signs of caregiver stress, it is important to seek help. These are just some of the things caregivers can do to make their lives a bit easier:
- The person under stress should go to the doctor for regular check-ups.
- Ask family members and friends for their help and support.
- Take advantage of community programs that provide respite and relief from caregiving, practical help with meals or housework and assistance with the care of the person with dementia.
- And plan ahead for both the immediate future and the long term.
