The lectures are free will be held at the McLean Health Center, 75 Great Pond Road, Simsbury. McLean will provide a simple supper and an activity for loved ones, so the caregivers can be free of caregiver responsibility. To RSVP, call 860-658-3786 or visit www.McLeanMemoryCare/rsvp.org

The fifth lecture in the series will be held on Wednesday, October 9th from 6-7:30 PM “Recognizing and Dealing with Caregiver Stress” presented by Sheri Morris, LCSW, Care Consultant

There is nothing more important than keeping the caregiver 
healthy. But in the ongoing role of caregiver, their own needs go unnoticed or ignored by themselves and others. Plus they feel obligated to do it all. Sheri has seen this and knows how to help caregivers and others in the caregiver’s constellation, recognize stress and demands and reduce them. This is a must presentation for caregivers of all ages – the spouses, the adult children and today often the grandchildren.
