Services for Caregivers

  • Information – Caregivers can find answers to questions about community resources and care assistance services for elderly, disabled and ill adults. Knowledgeable staff is on-hand to assist caregivers, listen to their concerns and guide them to find the assistance they need. A library of audio, visual, reading and web-based information is available for caregivers as well.
  • Referrals – Caregivers in need of care assistance services can access short-term or long-term care services through private pay or publicly funded programs based on their loved ones' eligibility. The center can link caregivers to a variety of community resources, social service organizations and providers of services to meet their unique needs.
  • Support Groups – The Support Group for New Caregivers helps individuals find answers to their many questions, easing their worries via discussions about caregiving tips and available support resources. Led by a licensed clinical social worker, the Alzheimer's Caregiver Support Group gives caregivers an opportunity to discuss and learn how to care for their loved one with Alzheimer's.
  • Caregiver Education – Workshops, forums and lectures build caregiving skills and engage caregivers in conversations about care planning, legal and financial issues, innovative research for Alzheimer’s and other debilitating and chronic diseases.
  • Wellness – Information is offered to help relieve caregiver stress and encourage self-care by request. Caregivers who wish to enhance their cognitive abilities also have access to Cognifit, an on-line subscription brain fitness program.
