About the Programme/Event

In our caregiving journey, when we are busy supporting our loved ones, it is easy to neglect or overlook our wellbeing, leading to caregiver burnout and strained relationships. Self-care is therefore just as important as our role as a caregiver. 

In this talk, you will learn about:
1. What is caregiver burnout
2. Signs and consequences of caregiver burnout 
3. How to prevent caregiver burnout
4. How to apply caregiver self-care
