We are excited to extend our supports and services to caregivers in the Cherryville and Lumby area. Caregiving can be an incredibly rewarding role however there are many challenges that come along with it. If you are caregiving for a friend, loved one, neighbor and are looking to get connected with our Caregiver Support Clinician, call us at 250-550-8903 or email caregiversupport@ccfrs.ca. We have a range of supports and services specifically designed to support caregivers in their role, to alleviate stress and reduce caregiver burnout. Family caregivers are the unsung heroes in community, providing over 80% of eldercare often at cost to themselves. This program is designed to support caregivers directly, offering a range of supports and services to make their job easier. If you are actively taking care of a love one, we want to hear from you! Follow us on Facebook at our Family & Friend Caregiver Support page or subscribe to our newsletter to stay up-to-date on exciting workshops, group support, and other events that are designed to educate, inspire, and walk alongside you in your caregiver journey.
