Caring for the Caregiver Webinar Series

The Caring for the Caregiver webinar series brings simple, practical solutions to family caregivers throughout Massachusetts.

Overview

Are you a family caregiver living in Massachusetts? Your support and care may include managing medications, getting to a doctor’s appointment, helping with groceries, or organizing finances. 

Caregiving is a journey. You may just be starting to create a care plan, or already providing full-time care. Either way, caregiving is an emotional and physical time commitment, and the Executive Office of Aging & Independence is here to be your partner in managing any emotional, physical, and/or financial stress that can come from caring for a loved one.  

The Agency partners with the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative to bring you the Caring for the Caregiver webinar series. This virtual series connects family caregivers in Massachusetts with information and resources regarding their caregiver responsibilities, as well as tips to care for themselves. Each webinar focuses on a different aspect of caregiving, such as self-care for caregivers and navigating family dynamics.

Upcoming Webinars

February 23 | 12:00 - 1:00 PM

Join us for our February session of the Caring for the Caregiver webinar series in recognition of American Heart Month. This session is all about practical, empowering ways to support your heart while supporting someone else. We’ll break down heart health in plain language, share a simple “Caregiver Heart Health Toolkit” with realistic micro-habits you can start right away, and review clear guidance on when to seek medical care and what symptoms to take seriously.

We’ll be joined by three experts who will translate this information into actionable strategies that fit a busy caregiver schedule: Taylor Jansen, PhD, Postdoctoral Fellow in the Transdisciplinary Training Program in Cardiovascular Research at UMass Chan Medical School; Deanna Nourai, MPH, Director of Public Health Policy and Outreach at the Executive Office of Aging & Independence; and Dr. Maxwell Coll, MD, Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology Fellow at Brigham and Women’s Hospital.

You’ll leave with doable steps that fit real caregiver life—because your health matters, too.
