When my Mom got sick we had to take a hard look at the house. Some smaller rooms needed reconfiguring, one bed was replaced with a smaller one, and we had to make sure her oxygen line could reach everywhere without getting hung up and pinched.

The Realistic Caregiver @caregiverqueen.bsky.social · 22/02/2025
Many families keep a drawer w/ juice boxes, crackers, cookies, & granola bars for #caregivers, esp. when you need 24/7 care. It makes them feel appreciated, & your family won’t have to worry about someone accidentally eating the last of your loved one’s ice cream by mistake. #Tipsandtricks

This right here! One of the thingsthat has hit me the hardest in the past is the old adage of "put your mask on before helping others". Thats really hard to do when you watching others suffer.

Denise Brown @caregiving.bsky.social · 21/02/2025
Family caregivers rate their stress at 4.09 on a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being the most stressed. On National Caregivers Day, I think it's helpful to know what it's like to live with that kind of stress. More quotes: join.caringourway.com/posts/802530... #caregiving #nationalcaregiversday
A quote on an orange background with a yellow speech bubble. The quote reads 'There are no home health aides available in our area. I am trying to take care of my husband, my mom, our kids and work, with no help.' Below the quote it states 'A FAMILY CAREGIVER' and 'NATIONAL CAREGIVERS DAY' with 'CaringOurWay.com' at the bottom.

Dementia Caregiving Tip: Keep a “Yes, and…” mindset. Instead of correcting a loved one’s confusion, go with their reality and gently guide the conversation. It reduces stress for both of you and keeps the bond strong. #DementiaCare #Caregiving #alzheimers

This is very good advice. At times it can be very tempting to give in and be more controlling. In the end it isn't worth it.

This can be exhausting. Getting as much on "autopilot" as possible has helped me. Its a lot of work to get automatic drafts setup, and to get access to all the right online accounts can be daunting but well worth the time investment in the long run.
