As a board-certified psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, doctor of nursing practice, and CEO of Caring for the Caregiver, Dr. Caryn Blair is all too familiar with caregiver burnout. She has made it her mission to increase awareness of the plight of the family caregiver and create dialogue centered on solutions to support this integral part of our society. The Caregiver Empowerment Zone is precisely that—a supportive space that offers resources, education, and encouragement to caregivers so they can provide the best care for their loved ones and themselves. This podcast highlights the intense emotional, mental, and physical toll caregiving can take on an individual. The message is clear – while you strive to provide the best possible care, perfection is an unrealistic expectation. As a caregiver, your responsibilities are self-care, to seek support, efficient medication management, and keeping your well-being at the forefront. This new biweekly podcast will offer comprehensive dementia care support and guidance to family caregivers like you every other Monday morning on your favorite podcast player app for free. If you’ve ever struggled with the hefty task of caregiving for a loved one diagnosed with Alzheimer's or Alzheimer's Dementia, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to do it alone. Let this show, the research-based information I share, and the community of fellow caregivers be of support to you.
