National Family Caregiver Support Program

The purpose of this program is to decrease the caregiver's stress associated with the demanding task of caring for a loved one who is ill, elderly or disabled. A personal care attendant is provided, thus allowing the caregiver the opportunity to pursue other activities. Support services are available for family caregivers and for grandparents or older individuals who are relative caregivers.
 
Either the caregiver or the person in need of assistance must be at least 60 years of age and require assistance with two or more areas of Activities of Daily Living.
 
Services offered are:
  • In-Home Respite
  • PCA Services
  • Sitter Services

Caregiver Program services are provided by PDI of the South, Inc. through a contract with certain local Councils on Aging. Contact our office for information on whether you qualify for this program and information on how to apply for services.
