Resources For Caregivers
(NAPSA)-If you're an older person who could use a little
help or a caregiver helping an older person, knowing where
to turn for assistance can make all the difference.
It's easy to find out what local services are available to
assist you. Just contact the Eldercare Locater at (800) 677-
1116 or www.eldercare.gov. This free service is the first step
to finding resources for older adults in any U.S. community.
Home repair, transportation, nutritional meals and employ-
ment services are just a few of the many resources that can
help older persons live independently for as long as possi-
ble.
The Eldercare Locater also offers brochures that provide
information on warning signs that an older relative may
need help; topics to discuss with aging parents; staying in
touch during crisis situations; and energy tips to help older
adults save money and live safely.
