The world of caregivers and loved ones often diverge as illnesses progress.

 

Understanding how to bridge the differences can ease the acceptance of the changes, preserve the sanity of caregivers, avoid unnecessary placements, and ease the grief experienced by the loss of loved ones.

 

In this workshop, Stan Goldberg, Ph.D. will present more than 100 ideas from his new new book on caregiving Leaning Into Sharp Points: Practical Guidance and Nurturing Support for Caregivers (available in March, 2012 from New World Publishers).
