Confident Caregivers program June 12

ESCANABA — Creating Confident Caregivers is a program in select regions of Michigan, for family caregivers of persons with dementia and/or memory loss. Creating Confident Caregivers is a six-session workshop led by trained dementia care specialists. This program provides participants with information, skills and attitudes to manage stress and increase their effectiveness as a caregiver.

Creating Confident Caregivers is once again available in the Escanaba area, brought to you in part by the U.P. Area Agency on Aging/UPCAP. There is no charge to participants for the weekly sessions or materials and care for your person with dementia may be available through participating area agencies while caregivers attend the workshop.

The next “Creating Confident Caregivers” workshop starts June 12 in Escanaba. This is a six-week workshop which meets once each week on Tuesdays from 3:30 until 5:30 p.m. If you are interested in participating in this workshop contact UPCAP at 1-800-305-8137, dial 2-1-1 or visit us on the web at www.upcap.org.
