As a Caregiver I can help patients feel a sense of companionship by communicating effectively with them. This allows patients to express concerns and daily activities, and we the caregivers to get feedback on their practices. I will provide personal care, medical help, and emotional support. I need to exercise patience to deal with a loved one's memory lapses, angry outbursts, and other challenges. I need to take care of them to avoid any burnout, which can happen if they don't prioritize their own health and happiness. This includes: Getting enough sleep Eating regular meals Exercising Doing things they enjoy Joining a caregiver support group Arranging for respite care
