Mga Resource Center ng Caregiver
Caring for a loved one with cognitive disorder or another disabling condition forever changes the lives of families and caregivers. There can be devastating effects on those providing long-term care: financial pressures, legal quandaries, health problems, and emotional turmoil. Fortunately, in California, Caregiver Resource Centers (CRCs) offer help throughout the state serve thousands of families and caregivers of those with Alzheimer’s disease, stroke, Parkinson’s disease and other disorders. California was the first state in the nation to establish a statewide network of support organizations for caregivers; every resident has access to a CRC in their area (see below for services).
Mga Serbisyo ng Regional Caregiver Resource Center (CRC).
Ang bawat CRC ay nagbibigay ng mga sumusunod na pangunahing serbisyo sa mga pamilya at tagapag-alaga sa mababa o walang bayad:
