CAREGIVER SERVICES

Research shows that caregivers who use respite services at least two days per week can reduce the anxiety, anger, depression, and decline inphysical health that often results from the stress of caregiving.

Circle Center enables caregivers to live a healthier, more balanced lifestyle by providing the following support:

• Respite to give the family caregiver an option to work or rest (Monday through Saturday.)
• Reliable care so the caregiver can work without interruption or worry.
• Monthly support groups facilitated by our social worker (the fourth Tuesday at 9 AM and the last Thursday at 5 PM.).
• Training and education on a variety of topics designed to “care for the caregiver.”
• Quarterly reports regarding the participant’s routine and activities.
• Daily access to professional staff to address any questions or concerns (i.e. problem-solve current and long-term care needs).
• Assistance with developing a home program to improve performance and make daily tasks easier for your family member.
• Referrals to other agencies and providers.
• Regular, informal contact with other caregivers for mutual support and information sharing.
• Coordination of care with other service providers including physicians rehabilitation, and transportation.
