Caregiver Support Services
What are Caregiver Support Services?
Caregiver Support Services address the needs of a person caring for another.
There are three main categories of Caregiver Support Services:
Caregiver Training: Educational programs designed to provide caregivers the knowledge and skills needed to safely provide care for a loved one.
Caregiver Support: Support services and programs are available to provide emotional support, physical support and/or financial support.
Respite: A break from the responsibilities of caregiving. Also known as: Caring for the Caregiver.
Many people caring for a family member or friend suffer under the weight of the responsibilities. Often a combination of caregiver training, support, and respite can help a caregiver provide the best care possible for their loved one while caring for themselves along the way.
