Caregiver Support Groups

We began a book club for caregivers using When Caregiving Calls; the book has been a healing tool and has guided us through an intimate, amazing journey of caregiving discussion. We are looking forward to sharing our experiences with other divisions within our organizations, and encouraging the book as a self-care tool for the caregivers they employ and know.

Aaron Blight, Ed.D., is in tune with the struggles families face as they care for aging relatives. It’s the reason why he wrote When Caregiving Calls: Guidance as You Care for a Parent, Spouse, or Aging Relative.

Now through Caregiving Kinetics, we are pleased to offer author visits (in-person or virtual) by Dr. Blight to caregiver support groups everywhere. A visit with Dr. Blight will allow caregiver support group participants to engage in a meaningful discussion about their caregiving experiences. Caregivers will have the opportunity to read the book written especially for them, share feelings and insights, and learn from one another during an exchange facilitated by the author.

Author Visits Include

  • A presentation from Dr. Aaron Blight at your upcoming Caregiver Support Group
  • 10 Copies of Dr. Blight’s Book, When Caregiving Calls: Guidance as You Care for a Parent, Spouse, or Aging Relative
  • Question & Answer with Dr. Blight
  • A handout for caregivers to spur dialogue and engagement with their loved one

Bulk book orders are available for when your organization needs more than the 10 copies that are included. Please reach out via the bulk order form on the book page.
