Caregiver SupportCaregivers are an extension of the healthcare workforce. Many patients have family caregivers who work 24/7. Studies show that family caregivers provide at least 70%-80% of the physical home care. With this workload often comes a need for caregiver support. Support Groups can help create a safe environment where participants can explore their thoughts and feelings and learn coping skills. Support group times, topics and locations vary.
