An injury can have a far-reaching impact, affecting far more than just the injured party. One person who undeniably feels the stress is the caregiver of the injured. It's critically important to the health and wellbeing of both the patient and the caregiver that some fundamental basics are observed. The attorneys at The Law Offices of Conti & Levy have more than 60 years of combined experience serving the residents of the Torrington area; personal injury is just one area of law practiced at this multiservice firm. They're here to share some vital tips for the caregivers of those with serious injuries:

• Maintain Your Health: Though the demands of caregiving can come at any hour, do your best to eat and sleep on a regular schedule. Eat healthy foods, aim for a full night's sleep, and try to get in a bit of exercise each day. You can't properly care for another if you aren't caring for yourself.
• Ask For Help: Caregiving is a stressful undertaking; to do it successfully, one needs the support of a team. That team might include medical professionals, family members, friends, and supportive persons like therapists or clergy. Don't be afraid or ashamed to ask for help when you need it. The Law Offices of Conti & Levy are dedicated to helping clients get the compensation they need in order to have these supportive resources at their disposal.
• Manage Your Daily Tasks: It's easy to become overwhelmed when caring for an injured person. Each day, make a thorough list of everything that needs to be done, from most important to least. This will help you see what needs to be done and lend a feeling of accomplishment as you cross off each finished task.
• Take Personal Time: Even if it's just a five-minute walk around the block, schedule some personal time into your task list every day. This goes a long way in helping you stay centered, focused, and calm. Your lawyer at The Law Offices of Conti & Levy wants you to stay healthy and strong as you carry out this important, selfless work.
