Helping from afar.
Relatives and loved ones who moved away many years ago are often called upon during a health crisis. At a loss of where to begin because of living at a distance and other constraints, long-distance caregivers are faced with the difficult task of coordinating and providing care to a loved one from afar.
Long-distance caregivers may feel guilt due to the inability to “be there” and stress from juggling work, family, and self-care. You may also experience difficulty:
- Assessing the day-to-day needs of your loved one.
- Understanding what services exist and how to access them.
- Coordinating medical care and appointments.
- Organizing daily household needs.
- Overseeing financial and legal matters.
- Communicating with your loved one and family members who are also providing care.
- Determining if and when your loved one should move to another setting.
