Episode 75 - Caregiver Support
The VA's Caregiver Support program exists to provide assistance to those who care for Veterans who can't care for themselves. Taking care of another who needs help with everyday tasks can be a very daunting task, and one that has the potential to take a great toll on the caregiver, both mentally and physically. The Caregiver Support Program is there to help caregivers learn not just what kind of care is needed for their loved ones, but how to best provide that care in a way that helps the Veteran while looking after the caregiver as well.
On this episode of The 9 Line, we talk to Kristina Ricker-Boles and Sheri Shileika, Caregiver Support Program Coordinators, about how the Caregiver Support Program is there for caregivers, the process of enrolling in the Caregiver Support Program, and some of the upcoming events planned to help caregivers get connected to one another.
