Gary Barg: What would be your one most important piece of advice that you’d like to leave family caregivers with?

Dr. Ruth: I think the most important thing is not to feel guilty. It’s not your fault. It’s not anything that you have done. And then, take it from there. Because if you start to feel guilty that you should be home, that you should be the only caregiver, you are going to run out of steam. So if I would have to choose one thing, it’s that.
