Beyond the Bedside: Planning to Care

  • Newmarket Public Library 1 Elm Street Newmarket, NH, 03857 United States (map)

This FREE community workshop is for caregivers—current or future—and those they care for. Together, we’ll step back to assess caregiving demands, identify gaps, and uncover what’s urgent and important. We’ll explore ways to share responsibilities and support everyone involved by leveraging strengths within their family and community. Whether planning for next week or next year, participants will leave with tools, strategies, and clarity to approach caregiving as a team, while avoiding assumptions and navigating challenges with confidence.
