Caring for a loved one can be one of the most meaningful responsibilities a person undertakes. However, providing ongoing care can also be physically, emotionally, and mentally demanding. Without proper support, family caregivers may experience caregiver burnout.
Caregiver burnout is a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion caused by the ongoing demands of caregiving.
Many family caregivers devote significant time and energy to supporting a loved one while also managing careers, households, and personal responsibilities.
Over time, these demands can become overwhelming.
Many caregivers place their loved one’s needs ahead of their own.

Burnout not only affects caregivers but can also impact the quality of care provided.
