Caring for a loved one can be one of the most meaningful roles a person takes on, but it can also be physically, emotionally, and mentally demanding. In this engaging and practical session, Jennifer DeMaris, RN, shares strategies to help caregivers balance their responsibilities while protecting their own health and well-being.

Participants will learn how to identify the signs of caregiver burnout, establish healthy boundaries, access available community resources, and build a sustainable support network. Drawing from both professional expertise and personal experience, Jennifer offers real-world tools and encouragement for caregivers supporting a child, parent, spouse, friend, or other loved one.

Attendees will leave with actionable steps to help them care for themselves while continuing to provide support for those who depend on them.
