Workshop #1: Preparing Yourself, Your Loved One and Your Home for External Help

As a family caregiver your plate is full, you’re exhausted, you need and want help. Too often I notice that family caregivers assume that external supports  (paid caregivers or volunteers) can just jump in and do what’s best for their loved one and often end up disappointed when expectations aren’t met. 

You have to be intentional in how you set up yourself, prepare your loved one and prepare your home so that everyone has what they need to thrive.

In our 75 minutes together: 

• We will tackle our mindsets around welcoming in 'strangers' into the home 

• We will explore the systems needed to welcome and support external help into the home 

• We will strategize around intentionally preparing our loved ones for someone new to be with them
