Family members play an important role in
providing care to older people. The Family Caregiver Support
Program is designed to meet the needs of these caregivers.
There are five main components to this service: Information
to caregivers about available services; assistance to
caregivers in gaining access to services; individual
counseling, support groups and training; respite care to
help caregivers take a break from providing care; and
supplemental services such as personal care, adult day care
and transportation.
