This episode of The Caregiver Community is made possible by our sponsor, Pace @ Home in Hickory, NC.

GeriatRx, Inc. is your personal pharmacist-led consulting service that focuses not only on chronic medication management but identifies that there is a lack of support for parents that are caregivers or for the elderly who need help in maneuvering a very difficult healthcare landscape. We pride ourselves on being your advocate alongside your medical provider in creating the best possible care plan for you or your loved ones while empowering you with health education and invaluable resources

While providing care for her mother, Frances S. Hall, Founder, and Executive Director of ACAPcommunity began ACAP as a monthly educational support program for fellow faculty and staff on a small NC university campus, then transitioned the program into a nationally unique, community-impact nonprofit model in 2012. With a master’s degree in higher education administration and a 30+-year career in higher education and nonprofits, Frances continues to lead the growing organization as it continues to provide information, resources support, and community for adult children and others who care for older loved ones.
