Caregiver Support

Many in our community are providing 24-hour care, 7 days a week, to family or neighbors.  The Caregiver Support Program exists to provide respite care plus information and assistance to those Caregivers.

Respite care, including light housekeeping and basic personal care, can be arranged through this program.  Also, we hold events at both Senior Centers at which respite care is provided so that Caregivers can participate.

Licensed aides are available.  The Council prepares volunteers through extensive training.  Contact Jeannie Ellington, Nutrition Program Manager, or Evelyn White, Volunteer Coordinator, at 542-4512.
