Caregivers often face several challenges, including:
- Emotional Stress: Dealing with patients' suffering and death can take a significant emotional toll. - Physical Strain: The physical demands of caregiving, such as lifting patients, can lead to injuries. - Burnout: Long hours and high stress levels can result in burnout, characterized by emotional exhaustion and reduced personal accomplishment. - Work-Life Balance: Juggling caregiving responsibilities with personal life can be difficult, leading to strained relationships and personal neglect.
