Caring for the Caregivers- Renee Panec, BSN, RN, HWNC-BC, CCM, CPHQ Highlights

"It brings up a lot of feelings, too, in caregivers in terms of not only overwhelm, but they may be sad about their current situation. They may experience feelings of... really of grief, of that loss of the life that they anticipated living. And now it's going to be a very different kind of life.

And it's often unacknowledged. From whatever kind of life they've been living, whether they were professionals and had a professional job, or if they were a mom home with the kids, it's still huge." ~Renee Panec, BSN, RN, HWNC-BC, CCM, CPHQ

Ah-ha Moments

• What happens to the caregiver when a patient is discharged home, and they must do everything else they were doing AND care for their loved one?
• Are you pouring from an empty cup? What can you do to love and support yourself? What can you do for you?
• It’s ok to ‘bloom where you’re planted’ and use your skills exactly where you are, without feeling you need to change anything.
• Not sure where to begin, or who you want to work with? Begin where you are. You have experience with something that others may not have.
• What stories have you been telling yourself that hold you back? How could those stories be shifted to support you and what you want today?
• How can you nurture yourself to grow into who you want to be?
• Embrace your power Nurse… you have healing abilities filled with love, give it to yourself and then share it with others.
