I took this course to improve my performance as a caregiver to a family member with Huntington's Disease. The content opened my eyes to a system of caregiving based on compassion and holistic service for both the recipient and the caregiver. I feel like my objectives were met and surpassed.

Became too much of a politicized Infomercial. A few great moments of value but perhaps too few to regard this as a high quality course. Sorry...just the way I feel.
