In Honor of Family Caregiver's Month |
|
|
Greetings!
As we discussed last week, more than 60% of my practice concerns Alzheimer's patients. With the patient almost always comes the under-supported, overworked caregivers. This CAREGIVER'S BILL OF RIGHTS is in honor of those who care for the elderly and incapacitated:
CAREGIVER'S BILL OF RIGHTS
-
To care for myself, to rest when I'm tired, to eat well, to take breaks from caregiving when I need one.
-
To recognize the limits of my own endurance and strength.
-
To seek help from family, friends and the community at large.
-
To socialize, maintain my interests and do things I enjoy.
-
To acknowledge my feelings, whether positive or negative, including frustration, anger and depression and to express them in an appropriate way.
-
To take pride in the valuable work I do.
-
To applaud the courage and strength it takes to care for a loved one.
Please share this with your clients, friends and families. In all my years of practice, I have never seen an ill family member become well, because the caregiver got sick!
Sincerely, |
|
