Care for Caregivers

Caregiving is one of the most rewarding, and exhausting, roles one can have. Most were thrust into the role without ever having any training.  South Coast Hospice has been providing support and training to the caregivers of our patients for over 39 years.  We are able to help them know what to expect, techniques to make personal care easier, how to prevent falls, the importance of self care and building a support network, and much more.

This article discusses the challenges and rewards of caregiving, and acknowledges the special stress that comes with being a caregiver.

Do you recognize any of the signs of burnout in yourself or your loved one?

We now offer free workshops and presentations for caregivers in the community.  With the support of the Eugene & Marlaina Johnston Charitable Fund and Advance Health we are able to collaborate with community partners to bring these trainings to residents in our service area.
