Caregiver burnout
You're doing everything and it's not sustainable.
You're not failing
- Burnout is common and it's a sign the plan needs more help, not more effort from you.
Options to get a break
- Respite stays: short stays in assisted living or memory care, often days to weeks.
- Adult day programs and in-home care for a few hours a week.
- Ask your local Aging and Disability Resource Center about caregiver support programs.
