Build your care team to assist your aging loved one
Building a senior care team is a task but it can be done. This boot camp will guide you through understanding what your aging loved ones and seniors need and how to provide the proper care for them.
Join us for a working boot camp where we come along side you and assist you in building a care team to help manage the care of your aging loved one.
The goal is to have your care team in place by the end of the boot camp. This program is for those that are ready to get some of their time back and ready to share the responsibility of managing the care of their aging parents or other aging loved ones.

Here is What to Expect
Module One: Introduction
In the opening section, we will discuss the demands and expectations of the caregiving role. By understanding these challenges and the toll they can take, you will be better positioned to see the value in assembling a care team to share the weight when insurance doesn't provide all the assistance you need.

This module is about self-evaluation. We will explore in detail the aspects of daily caregiving that cause the most stress, helping you pinpoint the tasks where other people could step in and help.
Module Three: Assembling the Team Members
Here, you will develop an action plan to secure the right people to form your care team. We'll delve into communication strategies to express your needs clearly and the qualities to look for in potential team members.
Module Four: Roles and Responsibilities
To ensure a smoothly functioning care team, roles and responsibilities must be clearly defined. Learn how to delegate effectively and outline tasks in a way that is manageable and fair.

This section is all about building collaborative and supportive relationships within your care team. Discover methods to foster trust, encourage open communication, and learn how to appropriately recognize the unique contributions of each member.

No team functions without the occasional wrinkle. In this module, you will learn how to address conflicts that may arise within your care team and find amicable solutions that keep the group united and focused on its purpose.
Module Seven: Sustaining the Care Team
Committing to caring for another is a marathon, not a sprint. Here, we will equip you with methods to maintain a strong, dedicated care team for the long term and sustain momentum and support.
Module Eight: Taking Care of Yourself
Acknowledgment that the caregiver's own well-being is crucial. Discover the balance needed for self-care, making use of the care team to carve out essential breaks for your own renewal and retention of health and happiness.
