Maryland Department of Aging issued the following announcement on Aug. 21.
The majority of caregivers report their commitment to caregiving requires more hours than a full time job! The National Family Caregiver Support program supports those who care for others.
The Maryland Family Caregiver Support Program is administered by the Maryland Department of Aging and is part of a national network of caregiver programs funded by the federal Administration for Community Living. The program helps family and informal caregivers care for their loved ones at home for as long as possible. Family caregivers are the major source of unpaid help for older and disabled adults living in communities across the state. These caregivers typically include spouses, adult children, relatives, and friends.
