Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Alzheimer's Society of Canada would suggest that caregivers should engage in activities such as joining a caregiver's support group to help themselves cope with caregiver burden. This can provide emotional support, practical advice, and a sense of community with others who are going through similar experiences. Discontinuing ties with friends or finding a psychiatrist to prescribe antidepressants may not address the root causes of caregiver burden and may not provide the same level of ongoing support as a support group. Moving her husband to a nursing home may be an option for some families, but it is not a universal recommendation and may not be feasible or desirable for all caregivers.
