Q: I am an only child and lately Iâve been feeling overwhelmed by being the only person available to help care for my mom. How can I manage my feelings so that I can continue to take the best care of my mother?â JP
Answer: Being in the role of the sole caregiver to a loved one can certainly be stressful. Fortunately, there are resources that can provide information and support to help ease the strain.
The Shepherdâs Center of Greater Winston-Salem developed Powerful Tools for Caregivers, an evidence-based program which offers a unique combination of elements designed to empower caregivers.
