Caregiver Wellness Tamil

About this Program

Caregiving takes many forms. Many of us help older, sick, adult family members or friends with disability. We know we are helping, but many of us don’t attach ourselves to the title of ‘caregiver.’ Yet, the role of the caregiver can often strain one’s health and well-being on many levels, including physical, mental, social, and financial. If you are unsure of whether you are a caregiver, here are a few examples of the many different responsibilities a caregiver can assume:

• Providing companionship
• Making calls as a security check
• Making medical appointments or doing reminders
• Escorting to programs or services (i.e. wellness groups, medical appointments)
• Talking to the healthcare team or providing support in decision-making
• Administering medications or doing reminders

If you are a Tamil-speaking friend or family member caring for a loved one, we offer the following programs virtually and in-person to support your well-being. To register and for the dates and times of each program, please view our program schedule on the event calendar.
