The Fountain Hills Caregivers Support Group will meet Monday, Feb. 3.

The meeting starts at 11 a.m. in the Activity Center at the Community Center.

The agenda features an open discussion about various caregiving concerns. This attendee-driven forum covers a broad range of issues including how to manage the effects of caregiving on the caregiver’s personal health, as well as contending with the emotional strain and drain of caring for a family member.

Attendees are encouraged to bring their own caregiving materials to the meeting. These could include resources such as books, articles, pamphlets and even websites. The sharing of information allows for the exchange of thoughts and ideas about possible solutions to particular caregiving concerns.

For more information, contact Jim Judge at 480-209-8755, or Bill Whittaker at 480-837-7961.

Open to all caregivers regardless of age, affliction or disease, or place of residence, the Fountain Hills Caregivers Support Group offers a responsive environment where caregivers may discover they are neither unique in their situation nor alone in their feelings and experiences. It allows caregivers to exchange ideas and information, find solutions to similar problems and suggest discussion topics for future meetings. It is also an opportunity for caregivers to develop informal networks and peer groups for extended support.
