CAREGIVERS
ABOUT
Whatever your age, you are a caregiver if you provide care that helps a person who is frail, elderly or disabled.
The Caregiver Support Group at St. Andrew and St. Elizabeth Ann Seton is co-sponsored by Catholic Social Service of Southwest Ohio.
Caregivers meet the first Tuesday of the month, from 7pm – 8:30pm in the church basement. Anyone from the community is welcome to attend. The purpose of the meetings and the group is:
-
To help caregivers learn to take care of themselves and to know that they are not alone.
-
Provide opportunities to express feelings in a supportive, non-threatening and non-judgmental atmosphere.
-
Provide understanding of normal aging as well as abnormal changes that need attention.
-
Share what works and what doesn’t work in care giving.
-
Improve the quality of relationships of caregivers and care-receivers.
-
Provide timely, practical education on the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of care giving.
