Caregiver Activities for the Week

Monday: Since the weather is rainy today: Think of a fun indoor activity you can do with your loved one. Read, do a craft project, catch up on chores, etc.

Tuesday: Today spend an hour or two with someone you haven't seen in a while. Maintaining relationships with your friends and family is very important.

Wednesday: Write about whatever is on your mind currently....positive or negative.

Thursday: Have you heard of the Advantage waiver? This is a resource that could be very useful for your loved one. Go to http://advantage.ok.gov to learn more.

Friday: When was the last time you said yes to someone that offered to help? If it has been a while since you said yes, think about why that is and write it down in your journal. Knowing when to accept help is very important as a caregiver.

Saturday: When was the last time you went to the movies? With all the fall movies coming out there is sure to be a movie to your liking. Go and have fun...eat some popcorn.

Sunday: Plan your activities for next week
