Mentorship is a way that many caregivers wish to pass on knowledge and experience in a meaningful way.
As a caregiver, you know how important it is to have a sounding board; a sympathetic ear to listen to your thoughts and someone who understands what you might be feeling. A caregiver can listen, offer support, point you in the direction of resources that you need, and most importantly, understand your situation.
