Companion Care in Torrance: How We Help Manage Caregiver Stress
Visiting Angels® Torrance can help you to reduce stress and caregiver burnout with our flexible companion care services available in Torrance and the surrounding areas. When you become the primary caregiver of a loved one, it's important for you to factor in time out for you during your daily routine.
Providing care for a loved one is emotionally, mentally, and physically demanding and often leads to stress and caregiver burnout. Before you completely immerse yourself as the primary caregiver, be sure you recognize the triggers and symptoms of stress and what you can do to reduce and avoid them to safeguard your loved one and their level of care. Here are some of the signs and symptoms of caregiver stress:
- Feeling tired, having difficulty sleeping
- Dramatizing minor annoyances
- Feelings of resentment and anger
- Reoccurring or new health problems
- Increase in smoking, drinking, or eating
- Avoiding family, friends, or social events
If you recognize any of these symptoms, you may be stressed and headed for caregiver burnout.
