Respite Assistance
We can assist caregivers to plan for time away from caregiving to do things
that you enjoy! Respite planning and referrals to community resources
for alternate care so that you can take a break are provided.
Education
Seminars, workshops, and conferences that address the health, legal, and
emotional needs of caregivers are offered. There may be a recommended
donation for these events, but no one is ever turned away due to inability
to contribute! Our evidence-based and popular Powerful Tools for Caregivers
is offered throughout the county in both English and Spanish.
Counseling
Ongoing support counseling is available to CRC OC registered family caregivers
to address caregiving related concerns. Referrals to professionals are
available to address other counseling needs.
Legal Issues
Monthly workshops facilitated by elder law attorneys are provided at various
locations throughout the area to educate caregivers regarding Medi-Cal
planning for long-term care. Other topics include durable powers of attorney,
probate vs. a living will or trust, etc. Please check on our
Fact Sheets page for fact sheets regarding some of these issues.
