Taking Care of Caregivers: Learn about Compassion Fatigue

Please join us for the OTS meeting that will be held on Friday, April 4, 2025. This meeting will be held on Zoom starting at 7pm CST. The topic of this meeting is about Taking Care of Caregivers: Learn about Compassion Fatigue. The speaker is Ms. Patricia Marks, an RN with years of experience in elder care issues.

According to an AARP study, over 40 million Americans are caregivers. Studies have identified the many challenges facing caregivers but what are the long-tern effects of caregivers? Constant stress and responsibility take a toll on the caregiver. What is compassion fatigue and what are the symptoms of this illness? Are you seeing these symptoms in yourself, and if you are, what can you do about it? This program will help you identify your stressors, explain the symptoms of compassion fatigue, and what steps you should take to help yourself.

Our speaker, Ms. Patricia Marks, RN, has enjoyed a 50-year career as a registered nurse. She worked in hospice care with patients at the end of life, spending considerable time with family members providing caregiver support. Patricia co-founded and is President of Enfemera, an eldercare management and healthcare support service. This meeting is important for all transplant recipients and their caregivers. We hope to see you at this OTS meeting on Friday, April 4, 2025.
