THE NEED FOR CAREGIVERS

Susceptibility of Caregivers

Chan Chun Sing: Community should remind special needs children and their parents that they are not alone.

“Supporting the mental health and wellbeing of caregivers is essential to enable them to take good care of their loved ones and themselves,” said Mr Masagos.

The caregiving journey can be a stressful one, and caregivers need our strong support. In addition to having services and programmes available for them and their loved ones, it is equally important for family, friends, and other caregivers to provide emotional support.

Let us all play a part by extending a helping hand, or a listening ear, when we see someone in need.
