Building Better Caregivers
VA Houston Health Care (Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center)Building Better Caregivers (BBC) is an online six-week workshop that helps caregivers reduce stress and anxiety, manage difficult behaviors and emotions, and improve physical and mental health. Caregivers attend weekly online lessons, create a weekly goal, give and receive feedback from other caregivers, share progress and decide which tools and resources work best, and can log in at their convenience during the week. After the workshop, caregivers stay connected through the alumni community and have access to weekly discussion topics and monthly events.
