by Annabelle Stevens (Author), Carolyn Stone (Author)

Some are born caregivers, while others suddenly have caregiving thrust upon them. One slip from a ladder or moment of distraction in the car, or a trip to the doctor for what seemed to be a routine checkup, can change the life of your loved one and you FOREVER. Every day, ordinary people like you are suddenly forced into the role of caregiver in the midst of a crisis. In many cases, your need to serve as a caregiver will just be temporary, until your loved one recovers. In other cases, however, you might need to become a long-term caregiver. Short-term or long-term, all caregivers run the risk of burnout if they do not care for themselves properly first in order to be able to care for others. In this guide, discover a range of effective strategies for new caregivers to avoid burnout so they can care for themselves, and in so doing, be able to care for their loved ones. If you've been struggling with your new role as a caregiver and can't seem to manage a caring, work and life balance, use all you learn in this guide to get you back on track to a healthier life for you and your entire family.
