"Although a caregiver can’t change the condition of a dependent family member, a caregiver can reduce stress and protect his or her health by establishing limits, involv ing others, asking for and accepting help, and setting realistic expecta tions." Tullis points out The presentation is open to the public without charge Vicki Schmall.
