Powerful Tools
Powerful Tools for Caregivers (PTC) is a series of classes designed to empower family caregivers of older adults or those of any age with chronic illness to take better care of themselves. It is the nationally known evidence based educational program that emphasizes empowerment and self-care of the caregiver. PTC provides family caregivers with an array of tools to manage the emotions associated with anger, guilt, and depression, all of which are normal and expected companions of caregiving. Applying these tools enables caregivers to give the very best care they possibly can to their loved one. Caregivers learn how to survive and thrive during their caregiving.
