Family Caregiving
If you are caring for a parent, spouse or friend at home, you know that ensuring a safe environment and providing even the most basic care can be overwhelming. In late November 2003, The American Red Cross introduced the Family Caregiving program. This program will offer classes to help you as a caregiver provide the best care possible by gaining a better understanding of safety, nutrition, general care, legal and financial issues, as well as caring for yourself as the caregiver.

The topics covered are:

  • Assisting with personal care
  • Positioning and helping your loved one move
  • General caregiving skills
  • Home safety
  • Healthy eating
  • Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease or Dementia
  • Caring for a loved one with HIV/AIDS
  • Legal and financial issues
  • Caring for the caregiver

If you are interested in this program and would like more information please contact the Health & Safety director at 318-323-5141.Back to the top
