Did
my wife have a bit a stress when I came home from the hospital? You betcha!
Does stress increase for caregivers because they now need to minister to their
loved one, but also need to sort out all the drugs, rehab trips, doctor visits,
etc.? Well, duh!?
Thankfully,
the American Brain Tumor Association is holding an online webcast about all
this. According to the website, “Taking
on the role of caregiver for a loved one with a brain tumor is something that
you may not have expected. Your new role comes with many responsibilities that
can challenge a caregiver in ways never imagined. You will need to become an expert not only in
attending to a patient’s physical needs, but also in managing the details and
communication with doctors, pharmacists, insurance companies, employers and
others. This webinar will explore and
discuss practical strategies for recognizing and managing stress throughout
your caregiving role.”
Does
this sound like something you want to attend?
Or maybe something you’re desperate to attend? Well now you can watch
the presentation charts and hear the presenter through your own computer. It’s free
and all you have to do is register online and the ABTA will explain the rest.
