A family laughing together with an older loved one

For Caregivers

Navigating Together

You're not failing. You're doing something hard, and you don't have to do it alone.

Maybe it started with a missed bill, a fall, or a phone call from the hospital. Maybe you didn't even think of yourself as a caregiver until you were already in the middle of it, juggling your own job, your own family and your own health.

The Aging Navigation Circle is a place to catch your breath, get real answers and learn what to do next. Caregiving is not a solo mission. Many hands make caregiving easier.

What we'll explore together

Understanding changes

  • Knowing which changes are normal and which need attention

Appointments and transitions

  • What to ask your loved one's doctor, and what to bring to appointments
  • Handling hospital stays, discharge and follow-up

Caring for yourself

  • Caregiver guilt, burnout and setting boundaries
  • Asking for help, and actually accepting it
  • Taking care of yourself, too

Building a plan together

  • Getting siblings and family on the same page
  • Building a care team: family, friends, paid caregivers and professionals
  • Planning ahead for where your loved one will live and how care will be paid for
"The best form of caregiving is self-care."
— Dr. Yaw
