Webinar description: It’s increasingly common for one family member to shoulder the responsibility of caring for an elderly relative. This webinar offers practical guidance to help create a more collaborative, family-centered approach to caregiving. We’ll explore how family dynamics and past relationships can influence the ability to work together effectively and provide strategies for managing sibling relationships, resolving conflicts, and fostering cooperation among family members. Join us to learn how to share caregiving responsibilities and build stronger, more supportive family connections.
