A Caregiver Conversation by Carallel: Five Tips to Ease Our Holiday Stress as Caregivers
The holidays are right around the corner and we’re using this Caregiver Conversation by Carallel to get prepared for the season. Because while it’s common for the season to bring joy, merriment, and run of the mill family stress–it can bring an entirely different brand of stress for those of us who are caring for a loved one.
So Matt Perrin, Director of Caregiver Engagement, is joined by Jennifer Piscitello and Candice Holloway from our Care Advocate team, to discuss.
They deconstruct uniquely intense holiday stress for family caregivers and share five practical tips to manage it.
