“This webinar offers you the chance to hear from others on the same caregiving journey, to learn what has worked for them, what steps you can take and how to ask for the support you need.” “As your loved one’s journey with Alzheimer’s progresses and the ways in which they need you to change, it is so important to find ways to continue taking care of yourself,” Elkins-Lopez said.
They also will discuss ideas for self-care. During Caring for Caregivers, attendees will hear from caregivers about ways in which they feel most supported, both in person and from a distance. The Alzheimer’s Association’s ALZ Talks virtual webinars provide education, information, news and resources on a variety of dementia and caregiving topics. “Alzheimer’s education often is focused on the individual living with Alzheimer’s, which is incredibly valuable, but it’s also important to take the time to focus on caregivers and their needs.” “Caregiving is a deeply rewarding journey, but it can be unspeakably challenging,” said Holly Elkins-Lopez, program manager for the Alzheimer’s Association Miami Valley Chapter. Instructions on how to join the webinar will be emailed following registration.
To register for this program, call the Alzheimer’s Association’s 24/7 Helpline at 80, or visit and select the Caring for Caregivers program. The program, Caring for Caregivers, is being offered free to the community and will be held at 8 p.m.
