The challenges of being an at-home caregiver (or even a long-distance one, as in the case of an adult child coordinating the care of a parent from some distance away) can be overwhelming, daunting, and exhausting. The experience naturally alters one’s freedom for social interaction beyond the home, and this reality was exacerbated as we lived through the height of the current pandemic. Although caregiving is an expression of love and concern, the constant vigilance required from the caregiver can be emotionally draining and the stress of it can have physical ramifications. Consequently, self-care is an important quality for caregivers to cultivate.

Connecting with other caregivers can help to lighten the emotional load imposed by this ever-increasing phenomenon that has become a part of contemporary American life as our population ages. We hope this gathering will allow for opportunities of sharing, brainstorming, problem-solving, and supportive listening.

The group will meet on the first Wednesday of each month at 10-11:30am. This group will meet in the Conference Room at PBH&HH. As they become available, relevant handouts and other materials will be offered.

You MUST pre-register in order to participate in this group.  Please do so at least 24 hours prior to the meeting date.  To register, please contact the facilitator, Guy Tillson, PBH&HH Hospice Spiritual Counselor and Bereavement Counselor, online via email at gtillson@pbhha.org or by phone at 603-536-2232.

If you would prefer to participate virtually by ZOOM, please indicate that, and we will attempt to accommodate you.  Group size is limited to five people, so registrations will be accepted on a “first come, first served” basis.
