Caregivers do a lot for other people. As a result, it can be challenging to find time to care for yourself. Caregivers can become burnt out, stressed, and overwhelmed if they do not practice self-care. This is not a good situation for anyone. Learning where a caregiver needs to improve self-care is the first step in remedying the situation.
Consider using this Caregiver Self-Assessment Questionnaire to determine if your well-being as a caregiver is at its best. The questionnaire was developed by the American Medical Association and distributed by National Caregivers Library. Bonus: we will share ways to score better on the test over the next three months.
