Caring For a Family Member

The role of a family caregiver can be a difficult one, especially when incontinence is involved. It is among the top three reasons that families give up on home care and place a loved one in an institutional nursing facility. Since being a caregiver can present its own unique challenges, addressing some topics and concerns can give you a better understanding of the situation. In a three part slide series entitled “What a Family Caregiver Needs to Know”; NAFC will examine topics related to recognizing, discussing and caring for incontinence, managing incontinence, and medical reimbursement.
