Care Partner Connection

Care Partner Connection: Information, Resources and Support for Caregivers

Acting as a caregiver for a loved one can be incredibly rewarding, but it also includes many physical, mental and emotional challenges. Caregivers can often feel overwhelmed by the decisions in front of them and may not be aware of all the resources available, both for themselves and their loved one.

Methodist understands the toll this can take on the care partner – a spouse, friend or family member who is assisting their loved one during their health and hospital journey – and beyond. We’re proud to offer Care Partner Connection: A free educational opportunity created specifically to address the unique challenges caregivers face every day.

Each hour-long session will focus on a different aspect of being a caregiver, such as managing stress, navigating difficult emotions and connecting with community resources.

Sessions are offered virtually on the first and third Tuesday in November and December at 2 p.m. Advance registration is required. To register for one or more of these virtual sessions, please click on the date below to register:
