Taking Care of the Caregiver
Suitable for: Keynote or Seminar/Workshop
People in the “helping professions” – nurses, doctors, the clergy, etc., - have always known that care-giving is draining, both physically and emotionally. But the same applies to people caring for elderly or ailing relatives or those with special needs. How can caregivers continue to give support if they’re not paying attention to their own needs?
Designed to benefit both professionals and non-professionals alike, Dr Posen’s presentation helps caregivers understand the importance of reducing stress, caring for personal needs and putting a little breathing room back into life.

How to monitor your physical and emotional energy.
How to pace yourself and know your limits.
