Caregiving can be stressful. You take responsibility for another person and have less time for yourself. According to the Mayo Clinic, caregiving can lead to a host of stress-related health issues, such as sleep loss, headaches, alcohol abuse, and more.

Did you know half of all Americans don’t take their meds correctly? It’s true. In the U.S. alone, taking meds wrong contributes to 125,000 preventable deaths each year.
