CARE FOR CAREGIVER WEBINAR SERIES

As a caregiver of someone with end-stage renal failure (ESRF), it can be a challenging and emotional experience. This webinar series focusses on facilitating the role of a carer as well as relieving the stress related to being a carer. The main goal of this webinar series is to provide education and support to the carers taking care of their loved ones undergoing dialysis treatment. We cover topics such as the basics of dialysis, possible complications, and how to manage the side effects of dialysis. We also provide resources for self-care and coping strategies to empower carers to provide the best care possible for their loved ones. Participants will be awarded with the e- certificate of attendance after completing the webinar. CPD points will be awarded for healthcare professionals. Each webinar is for 1-2 hours.
