Caregiver Stress

Caregiving is one of the toughest jobs there is. Caregivers experience incredible stress and sacrifice as they carry out their caregiving duties — often on a 24/7 basis. Unfortunately, caregivers themselves are not always good at noticing this—or admitting it. Even when they are aware, they often hide it in order to be strong for their loved ones. It is up to those around them to look for signs of strain.
