Strategies for Caring for the Caregiver
Part three of NCJW Sacramento’s three-part Wise Aging series on dementia, Strategies for Caring for the Caregiver, was held on June 8, 2025 and explored the following topics:
- How to take care of yourself first
- Respite care
- Strategies for addressing fatigue, anger, depression, lack of sleep
- Dealing with denial, isolation, new personal health changes
Our sincere thanks go to our special guest speakers, Barbara Gillogly, Ph.D., CPG, LMFT, and Dr. Jan Rogers, M.D. for answering questions and leading the discussions with the attendees.
