Virtual Caregiver Educational Workshop Offered

Annapolis, MD (September 23, 2020) - The Department of Aging and Disabilities is pleased to announce an upcoming virtual Caregiver Educational Workshop.

Mary Chaput, Program Director for the Family Caregiver Support Programs in Anne Arundel County, will present "Respite Care: What Is It and How Do I Get It?" on October 29, 2020 at 7:00 pm via the Zoom platform. Respite care is an essential part of the overall support that families may need to keep their family member with a disability at home. Understanding when it's time to find that care, whether a few hours a week or round-the-clock, is essential for family caregivers. The workshop will help you plan for and find care and will explore options for paying for care.
