Fiona King just sent me a link to a good article they just published at their site. I think it's important information every caregiver should know. Check it out:

I found this site: www.thecaringspace.com was a good resource caregivers to families and individuals in need of assistance and health services in their home.
Right now, caregivers can register for free. This site helps you create a professional, online profile. You also get unlimited access to a network of available positions, an optional and affordable background check service, as well as helpful resources and downloads. Completing the online profile also means that your profile will be available to be sought out by families in need of your services.
Families seeking caregivers can also register for free right now. They get unlimited access to our entire network of caregivers, optional promotion of their position to interested caregivers, free conference call service, as well as helpful resources and downloads!
The site's online caregiving community is rapidly expanding so it's really a good place if you're looking for some assistance in your caregiving journey.

Thanks for the link. I wish I had known about these tips 5 years ago when my father's Alzheimer’s took his mind from us. We tried to reach him but most days it didn't help. He didn't know us anymore. My mother was 81 and they had known each other since she was two. It was so painful to watch her try and keep what they had shared for so long.
He's gone now, but I wish I had been able to make it easier for them both.
I'll be adding your link and this one to my own blog on caregiving. Thank you.

Below is a link to an article in this month’s Beacon about Easter Seals’ Adult Day Center that is within Easter Seals Inter-Generational Center. The article really encapsulates the benefits of Adult Day Care and would be very educational for the Maryland community.
Many people think the only care available for disabled adult loved ones is administered by family caregivers, in-home aids or assisted living homes. Adult Day Care is the relatively unknown option that more families should consider because it can be less costly and less emotionally taxing than traditional routes of care.
