Self Care for Home Health Care Workers and Family Caregivers
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought us face to face with many unfamiliar challenges. Consequently, the past year has left many people feeling stressed, anxious, and depressed. April is Stress Awareness month – a great reminder to take care of your physical and mental wellbeing so that you can continue taking care of others.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, there are many apps that can help you manage stress. Popular options like Headspace and Calm offer select meditations and features you can try for free.
