About

Family Caregiver Support

Many individuals find themselves in the unfamiliar position of providing care for aging loved ones or addressing their own needs as they age. We offer assistance by phone, in person (by appointment), and through our support groups. 

Our team provides supportive counseling and referrals for services such as in-home care, assistance in moving an elderly parent locally from another state or city, hospice, housing (including independent living, assisted living, and nursing facilities), transportation resources, housekeeping services, legal services, end of life planning, and mental health services.

In addition, we conduct seminars and workshops to provide caregivers with vital resources and information.

Caregiving: Where Do I Start?

If you are just starting, our free online seminar “Caregiving:” Where Do I Start?” is an excellent resource. We also offer individual care consultations where we create an individualized care plan, and we can even help you with a home safety visit.

This group offers opportunities to share experiences of the caregiving journey, learn about resources available, as well as give and receive support.

Book a Care Consultation

Care Consultation services are tailored to provide comprehensive guidance for a caregiver. Our devoted Caregiver Support Specialists are here to offer personalized assistance, aiding individuals, and families in navigating the complexities of caregiving. In a care consultation, you can expect recommendations for addressing identified challenges, guidance on connecting with suitable resources, and development of a personalized care plan to facilitate the management of daily activities and essential services.

We Partner with Faith Communities

When congregation members struggle to care for aging loved ones, they often turn to their faith. Spiritual leaders are some of the best and most trusted resources individuals and their families rely on. The Senior Source’s Caregiver Support Program offers supportive resources and tools specifically designed for members of ALL faith communities to support the older adults in their congregation.

We are happy to offer presentations on resources and tools specifically designed to support caregivers who are faith community members. Let us know how we can support you.
