FAMILY CAREGIVERS
Family caregiving knows no boundaries. Whether you provide care for someone at home or are responsible for someone in a long-term residence, down the block or miles away, you are a caregiver.
Caregiving takes many forms:
-
Transporting your loved one to doctor’s appointments
-
Keeping your loved one’s home clean
-
Assisting your loved one with bathing, dressing or grooming
-
Helping your loved one with financial concerns etc.
-
Contacting your loved one daily to discuss concerns and fears
-
Coordinating services for a loved one who lives in another state.
