Exciting new resource ~ Caregiving.com

Caregiving.com is a website worth checking out!

Created by Denise Brown, Caregiving.com will provide you with information and a sense of community as you care for your loved one. The site includes podcasts, webinars, and blogs designed to help with the very real challenges of caregiving.

The following quotes are from the article "Stress, Support in Caregiving" by Darcell Rockett in yesterday's Chicago Tribune:

"Brown has conducted an informal ongoing survey of caregivers for more than two years and found their average stress level to be 4.15 out of 5."

"A recent survey conducted by the organization [Embracing Carers] found that 47 percent of caregivers have feelings of depression, and almost 57 percent feel they need medical care/support for a mental health condition (i.e. depression, anxiety, stress) because of their role."

You are not alone. Please check out Caregiving.com.
