Caregivers adjusting to the constant changes involved with tending to a loved one with a terminal health condition often find a great sense of relief from attending support group meetings.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic changed daily life, San Diego County was home to a wide array of in-person classes, support groups, conferences and workshops aimed at educating family caregivers and helping them feel less isolated.
