MCP Rock Star of the Month Happy New Year!
Caregiver Self-Care Tips
2. Find the silver lining. Think about the ways caregiving has made you stronger and allows you to give back and show your compassion. 3. Share your feelings. Expressing what you’re going through can be very cathartic, even if there’s nothing you can do to alter the situation. Talk to a supervisor or friend and tell them what you are going through. 4. Avoid tunnel vision. It’s easier to accept a dif cult situation when there are other areas of your life that are also rewarding. Invest in things that give you meaning and purpose, whether it’s your family, church, or favorite hobby.

Thao understands that every new client she works with bolsters her expertise in caregiving by offering the experience of learning new ways to do things. In her words, ”By applying what I learned in school with all of my caregiving experience to my daily work, I’m able to help my clients live more meaningful lives.” We’re so grateful for your dedication, integrity, and collaboration, Thao!

We're thrilled to announce that our MCP Rock Star of the Month for January is Thao Le! Thao is an experienced and dedicated Memory Care Professional with a supportive approach and a passion for caregiving. Thao’s primary client has experienced many changes—both cognitively and physically—over the years. Thao is able to not only adapt to these changes by modifying her approach with her client, she is also able to anticipate needs and proactively look for ways to help. In addition to juggling the demands of her full-time client and family at home, Thao was also instrumental in helping us cover last minute shifts in December. From working overtime shifts to jumping in last minute when another MCP left with little notice, Thao really stepped up over the holidays to ensure all of our clients had consistent care coverage.
1. Focus on the things you can control. Rather than stressing out over things you can’t control, focus on the ways you choose to react to problems.

COVID-19
Staying Safe & Healthy
As we enter another new year with COVID-19 ravaging our communities, we must remain vigilant, as weary as we all are from this pandemic. Due to the recent rise in COVID-19 and u cases in the Bay Area, we are requiring MCPs to double-up surgical masks when working in the home with our clients. You may use K95s and N95 masks if you prefer, but please refrain from using cloth masks, as they have proven ineffective against the new Omicron variant. Please continue to adhere to our hand hygiene protocol and sanitize your client’s home every two hours. Our top priority is ensuring that you and our clients remain well and healthy as we continue to navigate this unwieldy virus. Thank you for all of your efforts; we recognize and applaud your diligence!
