FREE Caregiver Education & Support
The VNANNJ In-Home Caregiver Education and Support Program provides FREE in-home
education and support to unpaid caregivers so they may improve their ability
and effectiveness as caregivers. There are no Income or Asset eligibility requirements
for this program.
Specifically, the program will provide:
-
A registered nurse will meet with the caregiver at their home to conduct
an initial assessment and to set up a teaching plan that will help to relieve
caregiver stress and increase caregiver effectiveness.
-
In-home instruction
to enable caregivers to identify the skills needed to provide proper care,
including lifting and transferring, bathing, personal care, nutrition, disease
education, stress management, and accessing community resources.
-
Up to five professional home visits by a registered nurse, physical, speech
or occupational therapist, social worker or nutritionist to provide educational
and support services, including stress management.
The VNANNJ In-home Caregiver Education and Support program is made possible
through a grant received by the Morris County Department of Human Services,
Office on Aging, NJ Caregiver Initiative. Eligibility requirements may apply.
Please call 1-800-WE-VISIT (1-800-938-4748) for more information.
