63: The Physical Toll Of Caregiving

The physical demands of caregiving are not to be underestimated. Lifting, bathing, and assisting with mobility are just a few of the physically taxing tasks that caregivers routinely perform.

These actions can lead to strained muscles, back problems, and joint pain. Over time, the repetitive nature of caregiving tasks can contribute to chronic pain and even serious injuries.

Caregivers often prioritize the well-being of their loved ones over their own, neglecting proper body mechanics and self-care practices that can prevent these physical issues.

In this episode, I get down to how a caregiver can ensure they are managing the physical toll of caregiving.
