Welcome Caregivers!

(To skip to this week's post, scroll down...)

Special needs situations, like those we find in a home healthcare setting, demand special responses.

The fact that you’ve registered to participate in this blog is a sign that you are in a special needs situation. You are probably under a tremendous amount of stress and strain – both physically and emotionally – and you probably feel very alone right now.

Take heart…you are not alone.

For what it’s worth, the National Family Caregivers Association (visit their website at www.thefamilycaregiver.org/about/) estimates that there are approximately 54 million people in the nation currently caring for someone in need.It’s not an easy road, and that’s why I’ve created HomeBoundResources.com.

Let's not reinvent the wheel. Together, as a community, we are the experts in collecting and sharing the most important resources, information, and help for people who are challenged by a home healthcare situation.I really do care about how caregivers and patients achieve the highest standard of living possible. To that end, I recently introduced contributing writers as part of Tammy's Think Tank Team. Everybody benefits by a little help from their friends! Look for interesting articles on Fitness, Relationship Dynamics, Mobility, Overcoming Challenges. If you have an issue that needs addressed, let us know. You'd be surprised by the creative solutions people use!

I understand that every situation is different, and good advice in one situation may not be so appropriate in another. So, please let us know what’s working and what’s not. Visit http://www.homeboundresources.com/, and explore the tips, resources and publications available.

And, if you’ve got some advice of your own on a topic that I’ve written about, please feel free to e-mail your feedback to me. This effort works best when we all help each other.

From My Heart to Yours,
Tammy

The Carefree Caregiver: A Short Course to Peace of Mind

Carefree Caregivers: Knowledge is Power!
By Tammy I. Glenn, founder, HomeBoundResources.com

 
“Knowledge is Power” is most often attributed to England’s Sir Francis Bacon, a member of parliament and leader during the scientific revolution. It baffles me to look back on history and consider the periods of time when people were not encouraged to ask questions and empower themselves through education.

 
Naturally, when family or friends are faced with a health crisis, it’s hard to know where to start. Even with powerful search engines like Google that field billions of inquiries a day, it’s overwhelming to figure out where to begin and who to ask. I know because I’m on the receiving end of hundreds of your questions and concerns!

 
In October, I’m planning to release an online class, “Carefree Caregiver: A Short Course to Peace of Mind.” Sign up today! Call 1-877-805-0575.
  • Fast Facts, Simple Information and Easy to Follow!
  • You can skim through the course in close to an hour, or you can pace yourself a little bit everyday, or you can jump to the Short Course that’s most needed!
  • It’s online, so you’ll enjoy real-time updates!
  • You’ll have lifetime access, so you can view it as often as you like!

Finally, we’ll have something available that covers the key concerns that people have when when they find themselves in a caregiving crisis.

  • Short Course One: Coordinating caregiving from near or far.
  • Short Course Two: Tips for communicating successfully with physicians, family and friends.
  • Short Course Three: Learn how to confront the physical demands and avoid the top injuries and killers in home healthcare.
  • Short Course Four: Know the Legal Ramifications. Are you empowered to act?
  • Short Course Five: Plan for financial freedom and avoid bankruptcy due to medical bills.
  • Short Course Six: Manage Medical Records, or they’ll manage you! Includes our downloadable Care Management Organizer so you’re in control! 
  • Short Course Seven: Instant Relief! Caring for the Caregiver 
Thanks to numerous inquiries I’ve received from people like you over the years at HomeBoundResources.com, I’m going to encapsulate the best information available into this accessible online course. You have a voice and your concerns are shared by millions of other people who are challenged by similar issues.

  
Most online courses like this one charge $200 or more. I’m rolling this out for $29.95! 

If you have questions or thoughts on the course content, please send me a note at Tammy@HomeBoundResources.com
