Caregiving can be immensely rewarding but also physically and emotionally demanding. In collaboration with University of the Pacific students, this class addresses issues of caregiver burden and stress. Participants will learn techniques to manage challenging behaviors commonly associated with dementia, enhancing their caregiving skills. Additionally, we will explore effective self-care options to promote personal well-being, empowering caregivers to maintain resilience and quality of life.

If you need someone to take care of your loved one in order to participate, respite may be available. Please request it no later than July 5, 2024 by calling Del Oro directly at 916-728-9333.
We will offer a voluntary pre- and post-survey. All data collected will remain anonymous and will be utilized by University of the Pacific students for their research project.
