FAMILY SUPPORT

Family Support
FAMILY MEMBERS WHO ARE CAREGIVERS

Providing direct care to loved ones can be hugely stressful resulting in deleterious effects on the caregiver. This may be impacted by various factors including the relationship between the two people, the genders involved, the patient's diagnosis, and the caregiver's health.  

 

The family member who is a caregiver requires much support, which includes time away from the patient to rejuvenate and recoup the internal resources required to be patient, tolerant, empathetic, and compassionate.


Other family members should provide a safe environment for the caregiver to vent without feeling guilty about feelings that might not be expressed in polite or politically correct terms. Similarly, caregivers should seek outlets for pent-up emotions to prevent burnout. Here are a few suggestions of stress busters that don't cost a penny. many of which can fit right into a tight schedule. 

Knowledge Really is Power

Arm yourself with the knowledge necessary to provide the kind of care that you can feel good about. Ask questions, read widely, and don't be shy about using the internet. Not every bit of information you find online will be credible but check the source and use your instincts. Information purporting to be published by a professional that contains poor grammar and bad spelling is probably not the information you are seeking.

Great Sources of Information

Click the button below for information that will help you to provide safe effective care for your loved one.

Embrace Self-Love
Inability or failure to love self easily translates to inability or failure to love others and providing care to a vulnerable person truly is an act of love. Hence failure to take care of you, overtime will result in failure to take care of your charge, in equal proportion, as you will not have the wherewithal to do a good job. To be the best caregiver to your loved one, you must first be a great caregiver to you.

One effective way to self-care is to join a support group. Here are some links to support groups that you may join that have the potential to strengthen and uplift you to a realm where you can function at your optimum.

Take a break from your labour of love - Fifteen minutes away from the patient can provide a needed breather when emotions are running high and threatening to become overwhelming. A break can make the difference between self-control and saying or doing something that can never be taken back or be undone.

Look at Something Beautiful!

The world is filled with beautiful and interesting scenery that can now be accessed with the click of a button. Pinterest, for example, provides a great vantage point from which you can view the world. Take a peek at different cultures and far away places. The beautiful scenery to the right are a few such examples and the supply is endless. 

Say Something Nice to Someone who Needs to Hear it.

Making someone else feel good has a blowback effect - it makes you feel good too. Finding something nice to say to some folks can be challenging but not impossible, no matter how difficult the person might be. "You keep me on my toes!" This is a true but nice commentary on someone who frequently complains and criticizes, isn't it?
Finding innovative ways to express negative thoughts in a positive way is actually a good mental exercise and great for you. Of course, it is so much easier to find something complimentary to say about good people, indulge them and yourself. Remember, it makes you feel better too.

Laugh Often  | Laugh Aloud

Laugh at yourself, or an old joke and if there is no joke, laugh anyway. Laughter relieves stress, reduces tension, stimulates organs, boosts your immunity, boosts your mood, and actually relieves pain.

If laughing doesn't come easily, start with a chuckle or a smile. See if you can find a few smiles from the posters to the right.
