🌿 Did you know October is Emotional Wellness Month? 🌿

Caring for someone you love is one of the most selfless acts in the world — but even the strongest hearts need rest.

Here are 5 gentle reminders to help caregivers reduce burnout:

💤 1. Give Yourself Permission to Rest
Caregiving never truly “clocks out.” But your body and mind need time to recharge. Even a quiet cup of coffee or a short nap can make a difference.

💔 2. Feel What You Feel
Caring for someone you love can bring joy and heartbreak all at once. It’s okay to cry, to feel frustrated, or to feel tired. Grace for yourself is just as important as care for them.

💰 3. Don’t Carry the Financial Burden Alone
So many caregivers quietly stretch their finances to make things work. Look into local programs, VA benefits, or respite funding — help is out there.

🕰️ 4. You Don’t Have to Do It All
No one was meant to walk this road alone. Lean on friends, family, faith communities, or professional caregivers who can step in so you can breathe again.

⚖️ 5. Take Care of the Caregiver
You matter, too. Schedule your checkups, eat well, move your body, and rest. When you care for yourself, you’re better able to care for those who depend on you.

💡 Gentle Reminder: Even the best caregivers need care, too. A short break, a helping hand, or just knowing someone understands can bring light back into your days. 💜

If you or someone you know needs support, Cornerstone Caregiving is here to help.

Do You Know the Difference Between Home Health Care & In-Home Care?

Understanding your options can help you or your loved one get the right kind of help at the right time!

In-Home Care (Non-Medical)- Cornerstone Caregiving
✅ Provided by trained caregivers or companions
✅ Focused on daily living support — bathing, dressing, meals, companionship, light housekeeping, transportation
✅ Ideal for long-term assistance or respite for family caregivers
Funding: Typically private pay, long-term care insurance, or veteran’s programs (such as VA Aid & Attendance or respite benefits)

Home Health Care (Medical)
✅ Provided by nurses, therapists, or medical professionals
✅ Focused on recovery or rehabilitation after illness, surgery, or hospitalization
✅ Services may include wound care, medication management, physical/occupational therapy
✅ Requires a doctor’s order
Funding: Often covered by Medicare, Medicaid, or private health insurance for short-term skilled needs

💡 Tip: Many families use both!
Home Health provides medical recovery — while In-Home Care keeps life running smoothly every day. A great partnership to care for the whole person.

If you’re unsure which type of care your loved one needs, our Cornerstone Caregiving team can help guide you through your options.

Let’s Talk About Dementia

Talking about memory changes isn’t easy—but it is important. Open, honest conversations can be the first step toward getting help, support, and peace of mind✨

👉 Here are a few tips for starting the conversation if you’re worried about a loved one:
Choose a calm, private setting.
Use “I” statements (“I’ve noticed you’ve had trouble remembering things lately”) instead of “you” statements.
Be patient—listen more than you speak.
Offer support: “We can talk to a doctor together.”
