When somebody experiences a life-altering illness, surgery, or accident, it affects not only the patient but also their family, friends, and support system. Often, loved ones will find themselves in a new role. The role of a caregiver. Marlena Orme, LCSW, a licensed clinical social worker and the director of the Marcel Caregiver Center at Burke Rehabilitation Hospital, shares tips for communicating with your loved one's care team and tips to avoid caregiver burnout. We are here and dedicated to supporting you in this journey.
