Family caregivers need all the support they can get. The seven-week “Yes I Can!” series, sponsored by the Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital Foundation, helps caregivers build the skills they need to care for themselves and their loved ones.
Participants will learn about the fundamentals of self-care, communication, personal care and nutrition, community resources, body mechanics and falls prevention, end of life care, and legal and financial issues.
By the end of the course participants will be confident, empowered caregivers.
