Tips to Manage Caregiver Overwhelm

Pamela Wilson is the founder of The Care Navigator and The Caring Generation®.  She teaches caregivers to care for themselves and others so that relationships – rather than being burdensome or guilt filled – remind us that life is precious and time on earth short.   She has worked in the field of caregiving and aging since 1999 supporting family caregivers uncertain about their options and older adults seeking caregiving coordination.  Through Pamela’s 2 decades of professional work in the field of caregiving and aging and the personal experience of the death of her parents in her thirties, she has helped thousands of individuals and families facing experiencing uncertain caregiving situations arrive at solutions to embrace life’s transitions with dignity, clarity and stability.

The Caring Generation arose out of my weekly program on 630 KHOW in Denver and feedback from older adults that although they know they may need care, they didn’t want to feel “parented” by their adult children. The Caring Generation features 2 and 1/2 years of programs featuring caregiving subjects, Tales of the Caring Generation with a lesson and expert interviews.
