| Summary |
Caregiving involves not just the body and mind but also the spirit. Religious communities pay particular attention to enriching the spiritual component of their caregiving programs, each in its own way. Perhaps no other aspect of caregiving is as infinitely varied as the spiritual, and there is much to learn from every religious community - whether it is Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist or nondoctrinal. The groundbreaking PBS special And Thou Shalt Honor series brings to light the challenges facing today’s caregivers. The struggles and rewards of caregiving are given equal treatment in this incisive and thoughtful series. Sensitively hosted by Joe Mantegna, the purpose of the program is to promote awareness of the issue, promote awareness of the needs of caregivers and promote discussion of the importance of the issue before it becomes a national crisis. The program is meant to be a lightening rod to rally support, raise awareness, and energise a movement to change the fate of caregivers in this country. |
