The
Allen County Council on Aging, Inc., has received corporate
sponsorships and caregiver donations to offer the valuable Caregiver's
Support Program. Services include a Caregivers’ Resource
Library, Educational and Informational programs and “Conversing with
Caregivers” (support group meetings).
The
Caregiver's Resource Library at 215 N Central Ave, Lima, is
available to help you in your challenging
and rewarding role as a caregiver. You may view videos and read other
caregiver materials in our quiet, relaxing library area. For
your convenience, you may also check out materials to be used at
home. For more details, call Judy Jacomet at
419-228-5135.
“Conversing
with Caregivers”
groups are scheduled to meet regularly. These meetings offer support
and encouragement from others in similar situations. Short educational
topics may be provided followed by a discussion time. Come join us
for refreshments and conversation. For
scheduled times and locations, call Judy Doute at 419-228-5135.
Educational
and Informational programs are
part of our “Conversing with Caregivers” series. We have hosted
approximately 30 meetings each year. Area specialists
including doctors, therapists, counselors, facility administrators
and agency staff present valuable information.
