Support For Caregivers

• Alzheimer’s disease
  Understanding and caring for the person

  Alzheimer’s Disease affects 4 million people in this country. The emotional, health and financial impact on family caregivers is phenomenal. Studies also show that worker productivity may suffer as well. This program will provide an overview of the disease, helpful care giving techniques and support services available to lessen the stress for caregivers.

• Caregivers in the workplace
  Caring for an aging loved one

  We’ve all heard the term “sandwich generation”; those people trying to care for aging parents, care for their children while also managing their work life and personal goals. This program will provide helpful tools and techniques caregivers can use to more successfully balance their personal and work activities.

• Fitness Education
  People tend to think of an "elixir of life" as medicine in a bottle, a "magic potion" as some kind of pill, and the "fountain of youth" as mystical waters. But exercise may come closer than anything else we know as the best way to become and stay healthy, energetic, and happy.

  This presentation will help your audience identify the consequences of physical inactivity, understand 10 key benefits of physical activity, and discover several ways to make physical activity a part of their lives.

• Grieving process
  The mourning after

  An individual's grief over the loss of a loved one can take many forms. What is normal for one person may not be acceptable to another. Many factors influence a griever's response including societal expectations, type of death and personality variables. Reactions to grief can mimic not only physical ailments but also psychological disorders, particularly clinical depression. This workshop helps participants identify common reactions to grief, complicated grief, and when to refer to a grief counselor.

• Stress Management
  Cognitive management of stress

  Stressors affect people in different ways. We all have different coping mechanisms. The primary factor in dealing with stress, however, is how we perceive it, in particular what we 'tell' ourselves. This workshop helps participants explore their 'self talk' and shows the connection between thoughts, emotions, behavior and health.

• Supportive Community Services
  Homecare, financial, transportation, information/referral

  Review of community programs/services available to assist people in need. Includes home health care, financial programs, in-home services, nursing home information, information/referral, etc.
