Framework

When caregivers attend to their own physical, psychological and financial health, they feel better and are more equipped to recognize what they need to be their best for the important people in their personal and professional life. Integrating the competing demands of their home and work lives can lead many caregivers to sacrifice their own self-care to meet the needs of others.

Experiencing efficiency of work is a critical component of WorkLife Wellbeing. Identifying opportunities for improvement can reduce the administrative burden on caregivers. Creating an open dialogue allows issues to be identified and worked through, and this can be achieved by asking questions such as “Do all caregivers have access to the information, supplies, equipment and supporting team members necessary to perform their work?” and “Does technology streamline the workflow or create additional tasks?”
