Our Caregiver Round Up | Top Resources from 2022

One of the great things about ending a year is seeing all the positive growth and accomplishments of the previous twelve months. At Home Care Providers, we love sharing information that can help you do your best caregiving and keeps you on top of home care trends.

Here are our top home care resources from 2022. You can bookmark this page or sign up to receive our monthly blog so we can continue to deliver you more content to heighten your caregiving needs.

Resources for Caregivers

Taking on the responsibility of caring for a loved one is no small task. It is a commitment that requires many hours, days, and long nights. Stress is a very common occurrence for caregivers. Taking care of yourself as a paid or nonpaid caregiver may be at the bottom of your list but we want to help you move that to the top of the list.  This year, we explored Understanding Your Emotions to Help with Caregiving so you can increase your mental health and one of only ways to do that is through self-reflection. We shared with you a FREE Caregivers Journal and provided our best tips to take care of yourself and reduce stress.

Resources for Dementia Care 

With care strategies on every caregiver’s mind, finding methods to elevate our care tactics is always at the top list. That is why we partnered with Rachel Wonderlin from Dementia By Day to bring monthly tips to ease your mind and bring a fresh take to dementia care. So we answered a lot of questions this year on how to manage care from In Home Activities to Stay Mentally Engaged to Tips for Handling Sundowning Challenges.

Through our blog and expert led webinars, we explored topics like How to Handle Caregiver Stress & Burnout and recognize how to Embrace Their Reality because what Rachael teaches is so different from what is normally heard in dementia care education sessions.

And, if you’re looking to heighten your fall prevention methods, we partnered with Dr. Silvia Hugec and Source of Life Technologies to provide an overview of the importance of proactive fall prevention for older adults and their caregivers, address certain predictors, and offer tips to providers to further reduce fall risk.
