Care Partner Workshops
Care Partner Celebration!
Join us as we celebrate National Caregiver Awareness Month and celebrate care partners in our BC Brain Wellness Community!
After meeting on zoom exclusively, this is an opportunity to connect in person with people you have only met with virtually. We will create a space to connect and learn and be celebrated, with music, speakers (Energy Conservation and Fatigue Management for Care Partners), decadent refreshments and a few surprise treats! We will also have an adjacent supervised room for anyone who needs to bring the care receiver. When you register, please register the care receiver for a spot as well.
Date: Monday, May 4th
Time: 1:00-3:00 PM
Location: In-Person at the Djavad Mowafaghian Centre for Brain Health (Room 3402)
Who Am I to You Now?: Adult children and Shifting Roles in the Context of Caregiving
This talk will review ways in which family roles shift in the context of caregiving. It will address role reversals, power dynamics, and potential conflict associated with shifts in independence and levels of risk. We will further explore how to engage with a greater sense of care and connection while fulfilling responsibilities.
