The Granville County Senior Center in Oxford will host a Powerful Tools for Caregivers series beginning Tuesday, November 2. This six-week series gives caregivers the skills they need to take care for themselves while caring for someone else. Attendees will learn that by taking care of their own health and well-being, they will become better caregivers.
Participants will learn how to manage emotions, reduce stress, and cope with caregiving issues and demands. The series begins Tuesday, November 2, and will be held each Tuesday through December 7. This free series will be offered both in-person and virtually. In-person sessions will be held from 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. and the virtual option will be held from 1:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. on the same days. Sessions will be led by Austin Caton, Family Caregiver Specialist and Susan Tucker, Aging Assistant with the Kerr-Tar Area Agency on Aging.
Caregivers will learn how to better care for themselves, so that they can be the best caregiver for those who need them most. To register, please call the Granville County Senior Center at (919) 693-1930.
