Coping strategies for caregivers

Coping strategies are doubly important for caregivers who are already dealing with stressful situations. When unexpected events fall onto our “already full” plates, we need tools and strategies to help us stay calm and evaluate what constitutes a crisis, and what doesn’t. Deep breathing, breaking a task into more manageable steps and getting clear on the next most important thing to do can help us all to stay calm and make better decisions in the moment. #dementiacaregiver #caregiver #stress #coping #dianechew
