Caring for the Caregiver

(1:19:43.6 min)

Caring for the Caregiver was developed specifically to provide resources and support for cancer caregivers to help them address the issues they face on an ongoing basis.

As a caregiver, it is easy to be overwhelmed by caring for a cancer survivor. An important point to remember is that you, as a caregiver, are also a survivor because you, too, are surviving the challenges, responsibilities, and life-changing effects of this disease and its treatment. Throughout this self-help program, you will hear stories taken from real life and solutions that can provide you with the hope and options you need, while showing you ways to balance your own personal needs with those of the person you are caring for.

Cuidados para el encargado del paciente

Cuidados para el encargado del paciente fue creado específicamente para brindar a quienes cuidan a los pacientes con cáncer recursos y apoyo que les permitan afrontar los problemas que se les presentan constantemente.

Es usual que la persona encargada de los cuidados de un sobreviviente de cáncer se sienta abrumada. Un punto importante que debe recordar es que usted, como cuidador, también es un sobreviviente porque usted de igual modo está sobreviviendo a los desafíos, responsabilidades y cambios de vida que surgen por la enfermedad y su tratamiento. En todo este programa de autoayuda, escuchará historias tomadas de la vida real y soluciones que pueden brindarle la esperanza y las opciones que necesita, al tiempo que le mostrarán maneras de equilibrar sus necesidades personales y aquellas de la persona a su cuidado.
