What is a Caregiver?

A caregiver is a family member or paid professional who looks after a child or a sick, elderly or disabled person. Generally, the caregiving journey begins with simple tasks, like cooking or cleaning. But, as the health or mental capacity of a senior citizen declines, caregiving moves beyond simple tasks. The time spend on caregiving also increases until it often becomes a full-time job.

Often, caregivers experience gradual overwhelm as their duties increase. Helping out with mail, handling bills, scheduling appointments, providing transportation and handling day-to-day tasks like grocery shopping, meal preparation, laundry, and house keeping can become a burden. This rapid increase in duties is sometimes called the Caregiver Snowball.

Having a plan in place, prior to caregiving, can prevent the Caregiver Snowball.

BENEFITS OF WORKING WITH US

Care Right’s holistic and proactive planning approach will save your family…

Time

Money

Stress

Planning, in advance, saves you and your family time, money, and reduces stress. Advance planning provides the time needed for a full review of various possible outcomes. It allows you to discover and consider your long term care benefits and your budget.

Although planning requires time today, it reduces the potential expenses and stress created by the need to make rapid decisions at some point in the future. With a comprehensive plan, you will know what to expect and how events will be handled.

Grab & Go Binder

When a crisis occurs, events happen quickly and certain decisions need to be made immediately. Unfortunately, some decisions are significant and can only be made by those who have the authority to do so. Not only is it paramount for everyone in the family to have documents such as Living Wills and Powers of Attorney, but it is also just as important to have all of them consolidated in a single location and easily accessible at a moment’s notice. This is why Care Right created its Signature Grab and Go Binder.

Crafted from high-quality synthetic leather, this binder offers the luxurious look and feel of genuine leather while being more affordable and environmentally friendly. With its spacious interior, the organizing binder provides ample room to store and organize all of your most important documents. Our Grab and Go Binder also includes a set of vibrant colored tabs that make finding and accessing specific sections quick and effortless. Each tab represents a different category or topic, allowing you to easily flip through your documents and locate the information you need. Easily customizable with a sturdy, locking ring mechanism which allows flexibility to adapt the binder to your specific needs.

“The Care Right team has been working with my 91-year-old mother, who has dementia. They have been very instrumental in helping my mom stay in her house despite her deteriorating condition. As an only child and owner of a small business, things can seem overwhelming at times. Care Right has been a godsend. They have helped secure properly trained caregivers for my mom as well as giving direct help in being there for doctor visits when I can’t make it. I feel at ease knowing my mom is getting the best care possible, thanks to Annalee and her very competent and caring team.”
