Caregiver Self-Care - Deep Dive

This podcast takes a deep dive into our Information Tool: Caregiver Self-Care. Caregivers are at risk for negative effects on their overall well being, including physical and emotional health, quality of life, social engagement, economic status.  Furthermore, due to the high prevalence of chronic disease in older adults a significant percentage of caregivers are at risk of exacerbating their own chronic disease. Navigating caregiving role functions to achieve benefits for both caregiver and care receiver requires the implementation of Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors.

You can access the companion NICE Information Tool on our website at: https://www.nicenet.ca/articles/caregiver-self-care. The online Information Tool  provides related links to videos, infographics, and a printable version. The National Initiative for Care of the Elderly (NICE) has developed a series of information tools derived from research studies that focus on understanding the challenges people face as they age. The research for these information tools is conducted manually, while their distribution utilizes AI-based technologies for generating audio and images.
