Tips for Family Caregivers
Caring for a loved one at home is both rewarding and challenging. As a family caregiver, your well-being is just as important as the person you’re caring for. Here are some practical tips to help you navigate this journey:

• Take Time for Yourself: Schedule short breaks throughout the day. A 10-minute walk or a quiet moment with a cup of tea can do wonders.
• Stay Organized: Use a planner or caregiving app to track appointments, medications, and daily tasks.
• Build a Support Network: Don’t hesitate to ask for help from family, friends, or professional caregivers.
• Practice Open Communication: Regularly talk with your loved one about their needs and preferences to foster understanding and reduce stress.

💡 Remember, taking care of yourself helps you provide better care for your loved one.
