Caregiving Supports and Education
Not sure if you are a family caregiver? You might be a caregiver if…
- You make sure a family member’s bills are being paid (or you pay those bills yourself).
- You organize someone’s medication for them and/or take them to medical appointments.
- You have a family member who could not live safely in their home without your help.
If you help provide care or support for someone you love, you are a caregiver.
Our staff provide information about a variety of assistance for family caregivers:
- Individual or family consultations to discuss care needs
- Caregiver support groups
- Referrals for respite assistance, friendly visitors, home care, personal safety alerts, and more.
- Information about a wide variety of classes pertinent to caregiving held at the Longmont Senior Center
