Essential Self-Care Tips and Resources for Alzheimer’s Caregivers

Discover practical self-care strategies and resources to help Alzheimer’s caregivers manage stress, maintain well-being, and provide the best care possible.

Caring for someone with Alzheimer’s can be demanding. During National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month, we’re focusing on the importance of caregiver self-care to help prevent burnout.

The Challenge of Care-giving:

Many Alzheimer’s caregivers are family members, often balancing work and other responsibilities. Without proper support, caregivers risk exhaustion, stress, and health issues.

Practical Self-Care Tips for Caregivers & Resources for Additional Support:

1. Take regular breaks – Schedule moments to rest, relax, and recharge.

2. Connect with others – Join support groups or reach out to family and friends.

3. Practice mindfulness – Engage in meditation or deep breathing exercises.

4. Set realistic expectations – Focus on what you can control.

5. Stay active – Physical exercise boosts energy and reduces stress.

6. Ask for help – Let others share care-giving responsibilities.
