Caregiver

If you are here in Yorkville Toronto to care for a sick loved one, we are going to provide you some tips and tricks on being a successful caregiver. Different support can include emotional support, help in medical care, help with financial and insurance issues, and serving as a listening ear to the patient and as the communicator between the patient and the Mount Sinai Hospital health care team. Remember that it is a team effort between you – the caregiver, the patient, and family members, friends, volunteers, and the health care team.
You can begin looking for in-person or virtual online support groups for the specific medical treatment, or diagnostic, create a list of daily tasks and share the burden with family and friends, create a daily schedule, be proactive in case of emergencies, stay positive, whether that is looking to talk with a counselor, or with a spiritual leader, and know yourself. Know your strengths and weaknesses, when to ask for help and when you need a break too to rejuvenate or eat and rest, as caregiving can be an emotional and physically draining task and communicate.
