Wythnos Gofalwyr 2021

Nod yr adnoddau hyn ar gyfer meddygon teulu a’r rheini sy’n gweithio mewn lleoliadau gofal iechyd sylfaenol, a ddatblygwyd ar gyfer Wythnos Gofalwyr 2021, yw nodi gofalwyr hŷn yn ystod pwyntiau cyswllt allweddol. Er i’r adnoddau hyn gael eu datblygu’n benodol ar gyfer wythnos gofalwyr, gellir eu defnyddio ar unrhyw adeg i helpu gofalwyr, yn enwedig gofalwyr hŷn, i roi gwybod i weithwyr gofal sylfaenol proffesiynol eu bod nhw’n ofalwyr.
