Caregiving is often a hefty mental load, so making sure your mental health is taken care of is vital. Here's a tip to help you reduce your mental load (and still get everything done). 👉 Delegate & Automate Organize responsibilities so that you barely have to think about them. Use local services, technology, or delegate recurring help from friends or family. Some examples include: -Set reminders for appointments in a smartphone. -Use alarms to remember when they need to take medications. -Use a grocery delivery service. -Make easy-prep or pre-made meals that can be heated up. -Set up an automatic delivery schedule of important supplies. -Ask a friend to drive your loved one to their appointment every Thursday. When asking for help from others, be specific about the tasks you need help with. You can also come up with a running list of tasks so that the next time someone offers to help, you'll have a whole list for them to pick from! What are things you delegate or automate that make your mental load a little lighter? Share them in the caption because they may inspire someone else!
