In the previous post, we talked about the challenges associated with being employed and being a family caregiver.
Today we take a look at some key questions that a caregiver should be asking and some ideas concerning support resources in the community. The reality is that a caregiver just may not be able to carry the entire load; however, there are many resources that can be tapped to assure that the work load is shared. In addition, getting professional assessment of the care requirements will help develop the appropriate caregiving strategy, head off the dangers of caregiver burnout, and ultimately result in the best and most efficient care for the person in need of the care.
