Did you know?

If you are caring for a loved one at home, you may qualify for free respite care through the Area Agency on Aging.

That means you can take a break while a trained caregiver steps in to provide care and supervision.

This support is for unpaid caregivers living with someone who needs ongoing help and can’t be left alone safely.

Through this program, ACCESS Care at Home can provide that care right in your home.

Sometimes just a few hours of support can make all the difference.

If you’ve been wondering what help might be available, this is a good place to start 💚
