What is Powerful Tools for Caregivers (PTC) and why should I consider signing up? PTC classes help caregivers take better care of themselves whilecaring for a family member or friend. In the six weekly classes, caregivers learn self-care tools to:
• Reduce personal stress through increased relaxation
• Manage emotions, specifically guilt, fear, anger and anxiety
• Communicate effectively in challenging situations
• Grow in self confidence and self-care
• Make difficult caregiving decisions
• Use helpful resources
Previous participants had this to say about their experience:
• “I now have tools to rely on…the materials are really helpful and will be a continual resource.”
• “I appreciated all the opportunities to share and relate the material to my situation…I will take better care of myself, be more positive and less stressed.”
• “It was non-judgmental; everyone was warm and accepting…I gained new perspectives on how to approach specific situations.”
Class size is limited. Register before April 25 by calling Joyce at (507) 386-5583.
