Caregiver Teleconnection sessions are one hour learning sessions that can be done via Zoom or over the phone for caregivers of older persons. Experts from around the country share information important to caregiving. Caregivers will have the opportunity to ask questions as well as hear from other caregivers.
Our sessions are geared for the family members taking care of a loved one over the age of 60. Professionals are also welcome to participate as well.
What is the difference between isolation and loneliness in older adults? How can family caregivers help their care receiver make more meaningful connections? Learn better ways to use your communication skills to fit the communication style of the person you care for.
