In honor of National Caregivers Month, a 3-week telesummit is being held to bring live, free access to expert information and resources for caregivers, regardless of where they may live. All anyone needs to attend is a telephone or Internet access. Attendees will learn about time management, financial and legal planning, self-care skills, health and wellness, communication, the aging process, and grief and dying.
Through live interviews with national experts, the Comfort for Caregivers Telesummit (www.caregiverstelesummit.com) will present valuable knowledge and insight on key issues. Attendees will learn about financial and legal planning, self-care skills, health and wellness, communication, the aging process, grief and dying and time management.
“It is important that caregivers realize the need and legitimacy of taking care of themselves. This is absolutely a time when caregivers benefit from support, yet many find themselves more socially isolated and overwhelmed as a result of all the added responsibilities,” said Dr. Lois Reid, Co-host of the Caregivers Telesummit.
Co-host Suzanne Holman added, “Our team of experts will provide knowledge, strategic plans, and encouragement for caregivers. And with the telesummit technology, they will have complete access from the comfort of their own home. It’s a win-win situation as we work together to provide loving care to our family members in need and also learn new ways to better our lives.”
