Caregivers
A caregiver regularly cares for a family member, friend, or neighbor who needs care or support. Often, it's not a choice; it's simply something you fall into. Caregiving isn't a paid job or volunteer work, and anyone, young or old, can take on the role. Children can also be caregivers for a parent.
It is important that you, as a caregiver, also take good care of yourself, that you still have your own life and that you can relax.
What support is available for caregivers? See the six recognized caregiver organizations. They offer a wealth of information.
