Many caregivers don’t self-identify as being a “caregiver”. They often see it as part of being a spouse, child, parent or in-law, but once the role of caregiver is explained, they ultimately understand the importance of their role in their loved one’s health care. When taking on the role of caregiver, it's important to know some of the challenges you'll be faced with and what support is available to you.
