People invited to take free caregivers course
BY MAEGAN MURRAY
HERMISTON HERALD
When family members dou-
ble as full-time caregivers for
their loved ones, they may be-
come overwhelmed with the re-
sponsibility it requires.
CAPECO Health Promo-
tion Coordinator Helena Wolfe
said caregivers can get so fo-
cused on the needs of the per-
son for whom they are caring
that they forget to take care of
themselves. She said that can
cause the caregiver’s health
to decline, and, in some cas-
es, they may pass away before
their loved ones.
With a returning set of
classes for family caregivers,
however, people in Hermiston
and Pendleton can learn some
tools that Wolfe said will help
them effectively care for their
loved ones and themselves.
“This class isn’t about how
to take care of someone else,”
she said. “It is about learning
how to take care of yourself
while taking care of someone
else.”
The program, called “Pow-
erful Tools for Caregivers,”
will feature six classes that
will take place from 2 p.m.
to 4:30 p.m. Mondays, begin-
ning Jan. 12, at Good Shep-
herd Medical Center. Classes
will also be offered from 9:30
a.m. to noon Tuesdays, begin-
ning Jan. 13, at the CAPECO
PDLQRI¿FH6(7KLUG6W
Pendleton. There is no cost to
attend, and each class partic-
ipant will receive a copy of
“The Caregiver Helpbook” to
accompany the class content.
Wolfe said the sessions will
feature interactive lessons,
discussions and brainstorm-
ing that will help caregivers
take the tools they choose and
put them to action. The class
will address how family care-
givers can reduce stress; how
to effectively communicate
with other family members,
doctors and paid help; how
caregivers can still take care
of themselves; and how to re-
duce guilt, anger and depres-
sion. The class will also teach
caregivers ways to relax, how
to make tough decisions and
how to set goals and problem
solve.
Wolfe said class sizes are
limited and interested par-
ticipants must contact her by

miss one or two of the other
classes.
For those needing respite
care for their family members
during that time, Wolfe said
organizers can work with par-
ticipants to provide that care
while they attend the classes
each week.
Wolfe said past classes
have been well received.
“It has a really good repu-
tation,“ she said. “People said
it has been really worthwhile
for them.”
For more information and

know if respite care is needed.
Caregivers who cannot at-
tend the class this session are
encouraged to call and ask to
be put on a waiting list for a
future class.
“If someone can’t do it now,
they can still contact me,” she
said. “All we need is to have a
good handful of people so we
can offer it again.”
