Many caregivers try to "go it alone." But the goal is not for one person to provide everything for loved ones. The best experiences occur when an individual puts in place a support system that ensures the best care for loved ones and the caregiver!

Partner with professionals, family members, friends, and service providers. Seek out products that will make you a more effective caregiver. Remember, having additional help allows you to concentrate your energies on your caregiving tasks.  When the right support is in place, it makes it possible for you to enjoy your time with your loved one.

Use the Eldercare Locator, a public service of the U.S. Administration on Aging, to search for services for older adults and their families. Go to: www.eldercare.gov .
