Whether you have always been caring for an elderly or disabled loved one, or, are newly doing so in a greater capacity, in these times of recommended physical distancing, it can be especially challenging. With the outbreak of COVID-19 and the emphasis on the elderly needing to exercise the most caution, more and more caregivers are finding themselves torn between self-care, caring for loved ones, and trying to counter their loved ones’ isolation.

This webinar outlines the impact of the pandemic on the elderly and strategies for caring for the caregiver in the midst of this recent pandemic. It will help participants understand caregiver stress, and learn tips and coping strategies for the caregiver as
well as isolated family members likely battling loneliness.
