Caring for the caregivers
Manage episode 515324568 series 3343401
One of the things that doesn't get enough attention when it comes to living with incontinence is caregiving. Those who assist their loved ones managing their symptoms - the emotional ones as well as the physical ones - often don't get the support they need, and that can take a tremendous toll on their own wellbeing. Today's guest is Lori Mika, a certified dementia practitioner and a passionate caregiver herself as well as an account executive for Tranquility Incontinence Products, who shares with us about the things you can do to flourish in the caregiving role.

If you look at the numbers behind incontinence in women, it’s hard to believe just how big an issue it is. Incontinence affects more women than diabetes, breast cancer and heart disease, but it doesn’t get the attention it deserves. That’s why NAFC has created the We Count campaign, to help you realize that you are not alone, and there are treatments available right now that can make a real difference in your life. Visit NAFC.org/we-count to learn more.
