And Thou Shalt Honor: Caring for the Caregiver

Caregivers really need to be encouraged by society to use respite care - to get out. So many caregivers become ill and they're no longer able to care for the person they are working with. We see that all the time. We're having a big outing tomorrow and many of the caregivers aren't coming because they don't want to leave the person they care for home. -- Linda, Interfaith Volunteer Caregiver Program, Chippewa County, MN
