At Home SupportWe advocate for at home senior care. We know that this can be difficult, especially when the economy is in such turmoil. If you are a caregiver to a senior family member, we have resources for you! We carry supplies for end-of-life care, daily living activity supplies and so much more. We also provide caregiver respite options, sometimes you just need an hour to pull yourself together. We ARE HERE TO HELP! Our volunteers can swing by for an hour so you can focus on YOU!
Our youth and adult volunteers in our Caregiver program are all trained in dementia care. |
Caregiver support
Caregivers who provide in home care to a loved one sacrifice so much. You put your needs on hold and this can cause burnout, frustration, and sometimes health issues. We have been there! The CIRUCL KC Family provided in home care to all of our elderly family members, our CEO is a former nurse and specializes in senior care. We had a village, and it was still difficult. We will try our best to accommodate everyone's needs, however sometimes that just isn't possible. Below you will find important information about our program, as well as the request form. Please review all this information, this will determine if we can accommodate your needs.
We do not provide medical care to seniors, we provide companionship and entertainment so you, the caregiver can have time to care for yourself. Some things we can provide:

Education
There will always be times when you question yourself, did I do that right, am I providing the care they need? This is all normal! We this can be tough, you may not be getting In-Home Care nurses on a daily basis, but we can help educate you and advocate for you and your loved one.
Education in elderly care is the main thing family members lack; we can schedule a face to face to help give you the guidance you need to care for your loved one.
Advocating for families is our number one goal, sometimes families can be overlooked by healthcare providers and nurses. We bring the knowledge, we bring the support. Contact us before you start calling Hospice or In-Homecare so we can help guide you on the right path.
