Share the Care celebrated National Adult Day Services Week September 19th - September 25th. Every one of our Day Centers participated in the festivities.

Share the Care, Inc. is proud to announce that our Caregiver Central Project is up and running.  Share the Care is a recent recipient of a grant from the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation, Inc.  The grant is funding the Caregiver Central Project.  All Central Florida residents are welcome to log onto www.CaregiverCentral.org to access the caregiver assessment tool and find local information and resources for caregivers. 

Our mission is to serve caregivers and we are happy to announce the opening of the Caregiver Resource Center.  What is the Caregiver Resource Center?  We are so glad that you asked! 

The Caregiver Resource Center is a place for Caregivers to go and access Caregiver Central, take classes, gather and support one another.  For a full list of current classes and resources, please contact Amanda Johnson at (407) 423-5311.

Are you planning a Holiday Party, team building event, or need a place to take your team to get them out of the Box?  We now have space available for your use.

Please call Amanda Johnson at (407) 423-5311 for available dates and rates.

Help us reach our survey return goal!

We mailed out our 2010 Caregiver Satisfaction Survey in early September and we are still waiting to hear back from some of our caregivers.

If you haven't had the chance to complete your survey, pelase take a moment to do so today.  Your feedback is important to us and the fulfillment of our mission.

If you have not received your 2010 Caregiver Satisfaction Survey, please contact Case Management Staff at (407) 423-5311 or mdavis@helpforcaregivers.org

Thank you, in advance, for your participation.

If you will be needing respite over the holidays this year, NOW is the time to begin preparing for your use of an Assisted Living Facility.  First, you will need to finalize your holiday plans so that you will know the exact dates that you will need the facility.  We recommend that you begin your ALF search by contacting multiple facilities and touring them to find the best fit and availability.  Each ALF has their own processes and procedures so please be prepared to fill out any and all paperwork that they require.  This can be a time consuming process so please afford yourself time to collect and submit to them their required information.  Share the Care, Inc. will need to be notified three weeks before your planned usage of the Assisted Living Facility of your choice.  Respite usage is based on funding availability and is granted on a first come, first served basis.  Caregivers that have not utilized respite this year (since June 2010) will be given preference. 

If you have any questions, please contact Case Management Staff at (407) 423-5311.
