Powerful Tools for Caregivers classes help caregivers take better care of themselves while caring for a friend or relative. These sessions are facilitated by trained Community Care Peterborough staff with experience as caregivers.
This free series of 6 weekly classes is not a support group. It is designed to teach caregivers the skills to:
- Reduce stress
- Improve self-confidence
- Manage time, set goals, and solve problems
- Better communicate feelings
- Make tough decisions
- Locate helpful resources
All participants receive a free copy of The Caregivers Helpbook, which follows the curriculum and provides additional tools to address specific caregiver issues. Early registration is encouraged as the classes are limited to 12 caregivers.
