Caregiving during the pandemic
Thank-you for giving me a moment of your time. I'm working on an Edmonton Journal project on caregiving in Alberta and I value your insight. This is an invitation to help shape what questions we ask and what stories we tell.

Consider these questions as prompts. Feel free to speak from the heart.

This is part of our Groundwork pilot project on COVID-19 & seniors and is being sent out in partnership with Caregivers Alberta. Read more about Groundwork at edmontonjournal.com/groundwork or email me directly: Elise Stolte, estolte@postmedia.com.

What about the experience of being a caregiver or receiving care would have surprised a younger you? Any words of wisdom to pass on?
How has your life changed during the pandemic? Tell us about the difficulties. Tell us about the positives. Any changes you hope stay?
Facility-based care — in your experience, did families and residents have a voice in how provincial safety orders should be implemented? And do you have lingering questions about how outbreaks were responded to?
What do you want politicians to know about caregiving as they review the continuing care system in Alberta? Is what you're doing today sustainable, and if not, what would help?

We plan to keep in touch weekly to let participants know what's happening next on Groundwork II: COVID-19 & Seniors. If you haven't already, you can sign up here: http://groundwork.edmontonjournal.com (link opens in a new window).

In addition, Caregiving Alberta publishes a newsletter with resources for caregivers. You can find that here: https://www.caregiversalberta.ca/for-caregivers/resources/enews/ 
Let's keep talking...
