Taking a break

We recommend having a 10-minute tea break after Topic 3 “Support Services Available”.  This gives the carers an opportunity to process what they have heard and prepare for the next two topics.

A tea break during the program also gives the facilitator a chance to check in with carers, to see how they are going or address any concerns they may have about a participating carer.

Finally, carers also enjoy the time to informally chat amongst themselves and share their experiences and knowledge.
