Increasing the Tools in Your Family Caregiving Tool Kit for those “sandwiched” with raising children, career and caring for parents.
Meet 2018 Women WELDing the Way® honoree, Mary McNamara, Director of Aging, City of Cleveland, at our December Executive Women’s Series as our featured speaker.
There are only four kinds of people in the world: those who have been caregivers, those who are currently caregivers, those who will be caregivers, and those who will need caregivers." Former First Lady Rosalynn Carter.
Maybe you planned on becoming a family caregiver at some point, but it’s more likely that you didn’t. Caregiving often starts small before it might evolve into a full time job. Sometimes, it’s a sudden life change that you never saw coming. Caregiving can be emotionally and physically challenging. It’s also a rewarding, selfless act. But it shouldn’t come at the expense of your own health and well-being.
Mary McNamara, a Licensed Independent Social Worker and the Director of Aging for the City of Cleveland will share 10 “ tools” that should be in your own family caregiver tool kit, information on how employers can support family caregivers in the workplace and will provide each attendee with a bag of resources to help navigate the family caregiving role.
