Creating Your Personal Caregiving Vision

As a caregiver, it's easy to get lost in the daily tasks and forget the bigger picture. But a personal caregiving vision can serve as a guiding star through challenging times.

Start by reflecting on what matters most to you in this role.

• What kind of relationship do you want to foster with the person you're caring for?

  
  

• How can you prioritize self-care and well-being?

Define your values and create a vision statement that encapsulates the care you wish to provide. This vision will give you clarity and strength as you navigate the caregiving journey.
