November is Caregiver Month

November is National Family Caregivers Month!

Some tips for caregivers:

* Learn as much as you can about the person's condition, and how it

could change over time.

* Stay positive: Be realistic about what you can and can't do.

It will help you keep a positive attitude.

* Ask for help: Be proud of the hard work you do, but remember

that you can't do it all. You will need help from others.

* Spend time together, apart from care giving tasks: An outing

or a trip down memory lane can add joy to your day.

* To give the best care to your loved one, you need to stay in good health.
