Caring for a loved one who is gradually losing their mental and physical abilities over time is one of the most challenging tasks. However, by adopting a family-centered approach, we can overcome caregiver burnout and find solace in supporting one another. In many traditional cultures, the elderly receive care from the wider community and the entire family unit.
