A member asked:
What makes caregivers successful and healthy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Self care: Successful care givers understand their limits and get the help they need. Nearly 50% of care givers are depressed and develop other health problems related to their caregiving. Leaving time for yourself, eating healthy, exercise, sleep and healthy stress coping techniques are all important.
