SUMMARY:Understanding Caregiver Challenges in Rural Communities
DESCRIPTION:Being a caregiver is a challenging journey\, and for those living in rural communities\, the path can be even more demanding. Accessing essential support and resources when living far from healthcare can be time-consuming\, especially during a crisis. Join our informative webinar and hear from Cierra Garrow\, a young caregiver with firsthand experience and knowledge of rural caregiving. You will get insights on:\n• Tools\, tips\, and practical strategies for caregiving in rural communities\n• Navigating the rural healthcare system and getting access to the support you need\n• Building a support network to share experiences with other caregivers\nWho should attend? This webinar is for caregivers who live in all communities\, but especially for caregivers who live in small towns\, cities\, and hamlets all over Ontario. \nNOTE: Due to unforeseen circumstances\, there has been a change in speaker. We have updated the speaker bio below.\nSpeaker bio: Susan is a social worker of 37 years whose focus has been to provide mental health services to persons in rural and isolated communities. Susan has a passion for caregiver support\, having worked as a medical social worker in hospital\, residential and community programs across the Northwest\, but also in rural Southeastern Ontario. Susan’s hope is to acknowledge and support caregivers with an understanding of how difficult caregiving can be with the challenges of living in rural Ontario. Susan is a mother of two adult children\, grandmother of one and caregiver to her own parents in Northwest Ontario. Susan is\, currently\, a psychotherapist in private practice\, providing both virtual and in person support.
