Caregiver Workshops


Caregiving is different for everyone. The experience a caregiver has is somewhat dependent on the physical, emotional, financial, and life strains of their care situation; however, it is also greatly impacted by two other issues—the perception the caregiver has about their situation, and the humor they use to get through tough situations. If a caregiver sees only the serious side of providing care, they are more likely to burnout and break down. It’s important to find the funny moments—to let go of what we cannot control and embrace the silly chaos of it all. Every caregiver deserves a bit of humor to make it through the day.

Here are a few ideas to help you find humor in caregiving:

  • Buy a plastic wand. When someone asks you to fix a problem you don’t own, can’t fix—and don’t have the energy for—pick up the wand, swing it in the air with complete confidence and say, “All better”.
  • “Sorry I can’t today. My sister’s friend’s mother’s grandpa’s brother’s uncle’s grandson’s fish died. And yes, it was tragic” (Pinterest.com). Find a fun way to tell people that a task needs to wait until tomorrow. Sometimes laughter is more important than reason.

Find humor resources and ideas in the February Caregiver News.

Caregiver Workshops for SLCC Employees – Spring 2022

Staff Development is proud to announce that we are partnering with Salt Lake County 

Aging and Adult Services to offer a selection of caregiver workshops for SLCC Employees. This set of workshops assist SLCC employees who are caring for aging adults in developing the skills needed to manage an in-home care environment for better work-life balance. There is no cost for the workshops. Register for each workshop in the MySLCC Employee Training/Registration Portal. Prior to each workshop, employees who have registered will receive a link to join the meeting. Due to the sensitive nature of the information shared in these workshops, they will not be recorded.

CC27 – Asking for Help

Virtual Training Session
Wednesday, February 23rd

10:00 am – 11:00 am

 

Learning Objectives

Asking for help takes courage. It means letting go—allowing others to serve in their way, and on their time schedule. Learn to ask for help in a way that gives others choice. Learn to make asking for help less stressful and more engaging.  

CC28 – Understanding Behaviors

Virtual Training Session
Thursday, March 17th

11:00 am – 12:00 pm

 

Learning Objectives

There are two types of behaviors that need to be considered when caring for others. 1) The true nature of a person—the behaviors they have always used; and, 2) The behaviors that are present because of a diagnosis, injury, or change in health condition. Learn to differentiate between the two. 

CC29 – Calming Behaviors

Virtual Training Session
Tuesday, April 12th

1:00 pm – 2:00 pm

 

Learning Objectives

Noah Elkrief said, “A behavior is not difficult. It is the story we write about the behavior that makes it difficult for us”. Learn to separate the behavior from the story. Learn to create calm environments that keep behaviors manageable. 

CC30 – Working With Behaviors

Virtual Training Session
Tuesday, May 10th

10:00 am – 11:00 am

 

Learning Objectives

Professionals use a variety of words when discussing behaviors—examples include, coping, guiding, and managing. What is the difference in the three and what types of technique works best with each approach? Learn skills to influence the care environment, and learn when to ask for help. Some behaviors require assistance.
