How to Prevent Dementia Caregiver Burnout

How to Prevent Dementia Caregiver Burnout

In this episode, Host Dawn Platt tackles a common challenge dementia caregivers face – the sense of putting their lives on hold. Drawing from her experience caring for her mother and work as a National Dementia Trainer, Dawn explores why caregivers often feel their lives slipping away while caring for a parent with dementia. She validates feelings of isolation and sacrifice while offering guidance on maintaining identity, setting boundaries, and finding respite. Through personal stories and practical insights, Dawn shows listeners there's a way to navigate this challenging journey while still honoring their own needs.
