Senior Living Workshop for caregivers for ‘surviving the holidays’ Many of us look forward to the holiday season as time to spend with our loved ones. However, caregivers in particular face additional challenges during the holidays as they try to maintain traditional festivities combined with the demands of caregiving. Caregivers, whether spouses, adult children or other loved ones, are invited to attend a free workshop presented by Duet on coping and self-care. The workshop will take place 9 a.m.-1:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7 at Church of the Beatitudes, 555 W. Glendale Ave. There will be activities, lunch, door prizes and entertainment. Suntree Adult Day Health Care, 4120 N. 20th St., will provide free respite so caregivers are able to attend the workshop. Care will be provided from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on the day of the workshop.
