The Gift and Challenge of being a Caregiver

Being a caregiver can be the most rewarding and most challenging role you’ve ever had.  Join us as our speaker, Adele Lund of the Laureate Group helps us to ponder:

• What should we “reasonably” expect from someone who is a caregiver?
• What keeps a caregiver from asking for help?
• When it comes to caring for someone with memory loss . . . Why is it that we are reluctant to make decisions on their behalf?
• What causes you to become overwhelmed?

And then there’s the “Guilt”. This program will help you gain some understanding, validation, and to put it all in perspective.

A light supper will be provided. Tours of Hart Park Square will be available after the program. Please RSVP to 414-476-8787 no later than Monday, March 10th.
