If you are an unpaid, or paid, individual in a caregiving role, the McMaster Continuing Education Caregiving Essentials course and webinar series will provide you with relevant and meaningful information to help you as a caregiver.
With a new year upon us, it's common for people to make new goals, and caregivers are no exception. Why not try setting a goal to improve well-being? So often, caregivers are subsumed by the needs of the person they care for. How can everyone in the family find a pathway to helping each other meet their own mental and physical needs?
Join us for a conversation with Dr. Peter Rosenbaum, a McMaster researcher and co-author of the paper, The ‘F-words’ in childhood disability: I swear this is how we should think! Dr. Rosenbaum will describe the framework, how it emerged from the World Health Organization, and how it is increasingly used as a framework for whole families challenged by critical illness or disability, not just for caregivers.
Don’t miss this opportunity to incorporate a simple and powerful framework into your self care routine to support your well being, and your family’s well-being, in 2026.
