Caregiving for a loved one should not rest solely on one person’s shoulders. Family members can help share the care, regardless of distance. Learn from Elinor Ginzler, Director of Livable Communities, how to spread the workload to siblings, other family members and community services. Most important, though, keep your loved one in the driver’s seat of their care for as long as they are able. They should always be involved in the decisions regarding their health and wellbeing.
