Listening to the needs and concerns of caregivers is a fundamental part of most of the work we do at Sanjivini. We hear how difficult it is to find information relevant to the issues caregivers face every day. They often tell us that they feel alone and are unsure where to turn. Sanjivini Society for Mental Health has launched a Caregiver handbook for caregivers on Mental health day 2019. 

The caregiver handbook was made possible by valuable feedback from our caregivers, volunteers, supervisors and our staff, who all have experience working with the caregivers. The handbook is filled with symptoms, tips and resources intended to support the caregivers. We hope this resource will enhance the rewarding aspects of caregiving by helping the caregivers to manage some of its challenges and demands. This handbook will become a set and organized source of information and knowledge for the caregivers. It will motivate them to take measures on self-care before they also escalate in psychological or physical illness.
