Many times caregiving duties falls mostly on one family member who ‘volunteers’ to care. Caregiving often stirs up many family dynamics that influence who this volunteer may be. Think about your own family. Who would ‘volunteer’ to care for you? Rarely do we ask these questions before caregiving begins. We jump into help and manage all these concerns along the way. Typically we are caring for a loved one and all the memories come flooding back. We are caring for others while we are preserving a piece of our own past. #NFCMonth #CaregiversConnect #caregiversupport #caregivertips

📌 CAREGIVING (IS) REAL WORK | Every day, people around the world spend 16 billion hours on unpaid care work — cooking for families, caring for children and older relatives and other routine household tasks — often in addition to other jobs. 🌷 Employment advocate Sharmi Surianarain says we need to not only acknowledge this labor but also build supportive workplaces that put policies with care work top of mind. – © The Way We Work – TED series | https://lnkd.in/ghQBCAGq ... #caregiving #caregivers #caregiversupport #caregivingjourney #edmonton #unpaidwork #familycaregivers #supportivecare #supportiveworkplace #calgary #canada #policymaking #privatesector #publicsector #nonprofits

Children with special needs are an important part of our communities. They come from families of all backgrounds, whether rich or poor. Most people know someone with special needs, whether it's a family member, friend, or relative. In the United States, about 1 in 6 children have a developmental disability. This means there are many carers, both paid and unpaid, working hard every day, ... often invisible😔. We should think about how we can support these families. In the UK, carers get "respite" – a break from their caregiving duties to prevent burnout. This kind of support is crucial but not available to everyone. Caring for a child with special needs can be physically and emotionally exhausting. Without proper support, both the child and the carer can suffer. It's important for society to help families of children with special needs. By providing respite care and other support services, we can reduce the stress and challenges they face. If you are a carer, whether paid or unpaid, working at home or in school, in the UK or anywhere else, you deserve our thanks and respect. Your work often goes unnoticed, but this week, we honour you. 🙏❤ Happy Carers Week to all the carers out there! You are true heroes. #CarersWeek #SpecialNeeds #RespiteCare #Caregiving #MentalHealth #FamilySupport 🌍 Share your story in the comments, or tag a carer to show your appreciation! 💌

Daily Money Manager Providing household financial support to struggling older adults, busy families and individuals
One of the things I like about my job is meeting people in many different fields. Many of them are professional caregivers who now run caregiving companies. Some of them (through some of my volunteering) are people who provide caregiving to a loved one. One of the aspects of caregiving that is so difficult is how tough it is emotionally. I asked one of my networking friends (and personal friend) who is a licensed psychologist to ponder the struggles of caregivers and how to provide some self-care. She was gracious enough to provide an article for my newsletter and blog. https://lnkd.in/efAKrUKf Thanks Barbara! #caregiving #caregivingsupport #dailymoneymanagement
