Social Isolation and Well-Being for Caregivers
 
Being a caregiver to family member or friend can be taxing physically, emotionally, and financially. Because of the many responsibilities family caregivers face, social isolation is a common experience. This can mean celebrating holidays alone, not spending time with friends, or giving up the enjoyment of entertaining. Social isolation has become an even more pressing problem as the majority of the country is now practicing physical distancing. This webinar will discuss tools and tips to help caregivers cope with the isolation, stress, and anxiety of providing care during the coronavirus epidemic.
