ODL 267: Sharing the Care and Improving Family Dynamics

1 Credit Hour: Caregiving responsibilities piled on top of existing family, work, and personal responsibilities can be overwhelming. Family caregivers need more help but have difficulty articulating what is needed from family members. Elizabeth Miller, founder of Happy Healthy Caregiver and Certified Caregiving Consultant, will share how helping professionals can support caregivers with tried and true resources. The overall goal is to create a sustainable caregiving environment while preserving the independence of the care recipient and the helping professionals typically serve as advocates to achieve that goal. Attendees will examine different ways to elevate that advocacy, while serving on the care team.
