Dealing with Conflict in Caregiving
<p>Conflict is inevitable, and it is never fun. However, while conflict is simply a part of life, there is a human tendency to fear it and avoid it at all costs, preventing teams from reaching their full potential and providing the best support possible for the people in their care. To fight the instinct to run from conflict, you must equip yourself with the tools and resources you need to effectively address difficult situations that arise along your caregiving journey.</p> <p>Today, I discuss the topic of conflict within the caregiving community and why so many people fail to address it. I highlight the role that communication plays in mitigating conflict and ways to ensure that you are respecting the perspectives of others instead of merely placing blame when things go wrong. I also highlight what can happen if we fail to plan as caregivers and why I push for care plans even before a crisis occurs.<br></p> <p class="has-text-align-center">“When caregiving is involved, conflict brings forth its own unique challenges.” - Kelly Adams</p> <p><br><strong>This week on JeriTalk:</strong></p> <ul><li>Four key aspects of caregiving that often lead to conflict and seven strategies for responding to conflict</li><li>Why clear communication is vital in high-stress situations and tips for improving your communication in your caregiving role</li><li>Why I believe in developing a care team with defined roles and responsibilities for each person</li><li>Different factors that can influence our perspectives and the unique way we see the world </li><li>Why dealing with conflict can be even more difficult than attempting to prevent it</li><li>What holding space looks like, why it is essential, and how it can help us move away from defensive tendencies</li><li>Ways to demonstrate understanding and the importance of being willing to listen </li><li>The importance of taking ownership for your role in a situation and why I recommend using “I” statements </li><li>Why you may need a third-party to serve as a mediator to conflict </li></ul> <p><br><strong>Resources Mentioned:</strong></p> <ul><li><a href="https://evernote.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Evernote</a></li><li><a href="https://michaelhyatt.com/how-to-diffuse-conflict-before-it-begins/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lead to Win Podcast: How to Diffuse Conflict Before It Begins</a></li></ul> <p><br><strong>Subscribe, Rate & Connect with JeriTalk</strong></p> <p>Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of JeriTalk - the podcast for modern caregivers juggling work, home, family, kids, and everything in between.

Caregiving with COVID-19
<p>Dr. Justin Vines is a practicing PCP at Total Healthcare, located at the Russell Medical Foundation in Alexander City, Alabama. Dr. Vines earned his medical degree and completed his residency in Family Medicine at the University of Alabama and is passionate about his work with families and caregivers as well as his commitment to patient care.</p> <p>Dr. Vines joins me again today to discuss COVID-19, what it is, and why it’s considered a ‘novel’ virus. We discuss what caregivers need to know to help keep the spread of the coronavirus at a minimum for themselves and their loved ones. We discuss what social distancing is, what it truly means, and how it can help minimize the risk of spreading novel viruses like COVID-19.
