Caring… it’s not the hard part of caregiving.
Caregivers primary challenges lie in the logistical, emotional, physical and financial demands, not the love or compassion for their loved one.
The Caregiver Support Group’s focus is providing tangible resources, coping mechanisms, problem solving skills and educational tools to help caregivers feel more confident and less stressed in their roles.
The Caregiver Support Group meets monthly from 6-7:30 PM, facilitated by Mary Bogdan, MHA, BSN, CHPN, CHPCA.
Our group is FREE and open to anyone in a care giving role.
The National Alliance for Caregiving and AARP have released Caregiving in the U.S. 2025, a research report released every five years. Compared to past reports, the proportion of Americans who are caregivers has climbed, now standing at 24% of the U.S. adult population.
Caregiving has also become more intense over time, with 55% of caregivers handling medical or nursing tasks, as well as activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing and toileting. Seventy percent of adult caregivers under age 65 are working, and half cite impacts on their work obligations.
