Caregiver Support Impact
Key Impacts of Caregiver Support Program
Needed respite from caregiving and "self" time
Opportunities for improved relationships with family members
Respite gives a chance to have a break from the difficult, stressful and unrelenting responsibilities caregivers face in caring for their loved ones. Many of the respite activities are similar to the events and outings (Enriching Lives) we sponsor, but also includes beauty salon visits, dinner vouchers, gift cards and special events for caregivers and their families and for special "me" time. We also provide support to caregivers and those they care for to help make the caregiver's job a bit easier.
Over 66,700 hours of respite and support
