CarePartner Support
About Care Partner Learning Series
To provide a unique and supportive client centred experience, our support group program combines both education and facilitated group discussion.
Support group sessions are offered with 4 week blocks with weekly themes and CarePartners can register and attend as needed.
CarePartner Cafe
Alzheimer Society Peel hosts a monthly gathering that serves as an anchor for CarePartners to connect in an informal and relaxed group setting where they can socialize with others, share their caregiving journey in the spirit of healing and learning. All gatherings are co-facilitated by our ASP Staff Facilitators and Peer CarePartners with amazing tools and resources.
Ambigous Loss & Grief
Is a 3-week series that provides CarePartners (at any stage throughout their journey) searching to better understand and cope with the many losses associated with providing care to a person living with dementia. CarePartners will be guided through weekly topics focusing on loss and grief such as:
-
What is Ambiguous Loss
-
Grief
-
Coping
-
Expectations
-
Asking for help
-
Self Care and Wellbeing
Walk and Talk
Walk and Talk is a seasonal opportunity (July & August) to combine the best of peer to peer support with a little light exercise. This group takes the conversation outside, to enjoy the weather and enjoy some much needed social respite and support, with scenery included!
Participants should be comfortable to participate in light to moderate walking for approx. 45 min. Locations will include but not limited to Port Credit/ Lakeshore walking paths, Chinguacousy Park, and similar. Walk and Talk is facilitated by our Dementia Resource Consultants.
