The Sandwich Generation Blog Series-Part 3

Julie Murphy • July 16, 2010

This is the final installment of this blog series.  This is such an important subject because so many of us are dealing with these issues every day.  I hope this series has given you helpful tips and peace of mind.

Caregiver’s Personal Time – The key to maintaining a balanced lifestyle is managing family and work responsibilities while still allowing for personal time.  I suggest setting aside time during the week for caregivers to focus on their own needs, activities and personal relationships.

Work Together – To control anxiety, allow elderly parents and children to make age appropriate decisions.

Build a Support Network – Join a support group or ask friends and family for guidance to help release feelings of guilt, stress and frustration. Keep lines of communication open among family members, co-workers and friends.
