Multicultural Caregiving
Caregiving is a common experience across many cultures, but it’s not always the same. Cultural expectations, histories, and traditions all influence what caregiving looks like and feels like.
In our articles, we’ve delved into how different groups approach caregiving, along with ways to make the journey easier. Angelica’s eBook, linked below, provides an amazing guide that helps caregivers from different cultures to find support and be effective as caregivers.
How Different Cultures Approach Caregiving
Cultural differences often provide some benefits and create some challenges for caregiving. For example, caregivers from family-oriented cultures often grew up assuming that they would be caregivers at some point.
That assumption can reduce resentment for some caregivers and make the journey a little easier, but does create difficulties too.
