Supporting Caregivers and Their Own Mental Health

Posted August 10, 2026

Caring for a loved one can be fulfilling, but it can also be emotionally and physically demanding. Many caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and feelings of isolation over time.

Taking care of your own mental health is just as important as caring for someone else. Finding support, sharing your experiences, and taking time to recharge can make a lasting difference.

Veterans Memorial Hospital’s Senior Life Solutions offers support not only for older adults, but also for those navigating the challenges that come with caregiving and life transitions. You are not alone in this journey.

Anyone can make a referral to the Senior Life Solutions program--primary care providers, specialists, family members, friends, community groups, nursing or residential facilities and anyone can also self-refer themselves.
