Conscious Caregiving | Nadine Roberts Cornish | TEDxCrestmoorParkWomen

Описание: We are all in the caregiving business: those who have been a caregiver, those who are caregivers, those who will be a caregiver, and those who will need a caregiver.
With her personal story surrounding her mother's illness and its impact on her family, Nadine invites us all to participate in the process of caregiving; the goal of which is to create a culture of caring and most important of all, to play whatever role of caregiving we are in with no regrets and to become a conscious caregiver.
Nadine Roberts Cornish is the founder of the Caregiver’s Guardian, LLC. She has an extensive background in public health education and served as an independent consultant for 15 years with California’s Department of Health Services where she provided expertise on some of the state’s most innovative social marketing campaigns. Nadine’s most important role was as a 15 year caregiver to her mother. That journey was so complete that when it ended, Nadine didn’t think she would ever have to utter the word or think about caregiving again. A year after her mother’s death, Nadine knew without a doubt that caregiving consulting, education and coaching would be her life’s work. For the past seven years she has care managed, consulted with and supported caregivers across the country.

Those experiences were the catalyst for her inaugural book, “Tears In My Gumbo…The Caregiver’s Recipe for Resilience” which launched on October 12th, 2016. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
