Caregivers often completely change their lifestyle to take care of those they love. This even includes senior citizens caring for relatives under the age of eighteen, as well as spouses, adult children, and/or friends.
When asked what would make the life of a caregiver easier, many reply "information" and "respite." This web page offers an assortment of information.
To speak with someone about caregiving, call (716) 858-8526.

Those who currently are caregivers,
Those who will be caregivers, and
Those who will need caregivers."
