Cancer Center Series: Caring for Yourself While Caring for Someone with Cancer

We care about the family and friends that help provide care for our patients at Mass General Cancer Center and recognize the emotional and physical toll this can take. This session will explore sources of stress when caring for someone with cancer, introduce strategies to manage both the practical and emotional challenges of caregiving, provide recommendations for increasing self-care in caregivers’ daily lives, and identify helpful resources for caregivers. You will also get a first-hand glimpse into the innovative work of our Caregiver Research Program.

This program is part of the Cancer Center Series, a collaboration between the Maxwell & Eleanor Blum Patient and Family Learning Center and the Cancer Center at Mass General.

This online program is free and open to Mass General staff, patients, and the general public. No registration needed.

Time: 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM EST
