Roundtable Discussion: “Caring for an Elderly Person with Diminished Independence: What Measures Can Help Better Balance Personal and Professional Life?”

Online (registration required).

Five million French people often struggle to balance their roles as caregivers with their professional lives. Many caregivers are unaware of their status, and many others have little or no knowledge of the support available to them. Yet there are resources they can rely on.

During this roundtable discussion, social workers from the University of Marseille (UM) and the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), joined by experts in their field, will present the tools and resources available to both caregivers and care recipients. They will specifically address the situation of caregivers for dependent elderly individuals.

Speakers:

• Marina Martinez-Canadas, staff social worker at the University of Montpellier;
• Florian Bedjaoui, staff social services assistant at the University of Montpellier;
• Estelle Jacquot, staff social services assistant at the CNRS;
• Frédéric Pizzo, an occupational psychologist at the University of Montpellier;
• Camille Benzine, head of the Paerpa executive department and the Territorial Support Coordination 34 initiative;
• Amélie Unal, independent legal guardian for adults.
