Caregiving is a stressful ordeal and we sometimes end up all burnt-out in the process. The journey that the caregivers sign on might be a long ordeal and they need to prepare themselves for what might be called the most unpredictable journey. One of the most important part of the preparation is to learn how to manage stress.
