New edition of Therapeutic Groups for family caregivers carried out by Afaga Alzheimer and the Pasqual Maragall Foundation

• The therapeutic group to be developed at the Center for Comprehensive Care for Alzheimer’s and Other Dementias Vigo will begin.

The purpose of these free sessions is to offer the caregiver the necessary tools to properly care for their sick family member and to manage their emotions well, to cope with Alzheimer’s disease. Facing this responsibility daily generates wear and tear and brings with it physical and psychological health problems, depression, anxiety and overload.

Aware of this difficulty and the needs of caregivers and their environment, Afaga Alzheimer together with the Pasqual Maragall Foundation carry out this program that will be carried out in groups of 10 main non-professional caregivers, where in 14 sessions of 90 minutes, one per week and directed by a psychologist, they will obtain the necessary tools to understand and accept the disease, favoring a good adaptation to the new situation.
