With the arrival of an aging society and advances in medical technology extending average life expectancy, coupled with a declining birth rate, caregiving pressure and burden have become increasingly severe. “Long-term care” is a situation that all of us will face sooner or later. Recently, a widely discussed Taiwanese drama featuring a well-known actress as the protagonist has portrayed—realistically and vividly—the hardships, exhaustion, and helplessness that caregivers often experience in long-term care.

This course has specially invited clinical psychologists from Taipei City Hospital to accompany you in understanding stress and relaxation; learning about resources available along the long road of long-term care; exploring what choices you can make when facing the final mile of life for your loved ones; and learning principles and approaches for caring for people with dementia and those in end-of-life stages.
