What is Family Caretakers ?

Family caretakers provide vital support to loved ones facing illness, aging, or special needs. While caregiving can be meaningful, it often comes with emotional and physical challenges. Constant demands can lead to chronic stress, exhaustion, and burnout, especially when personal needs are neglected.

Many caretakers experience a mix of emotions—gratitude for being able to care for a loved one, but also frustration, fatigue, and guilt. Without proper support, prolonged caregiving can affect your physical health and emotional well-being. Recognizing the signs of burnout is key to creating balance and building long-term resilience.
