"According to the World Federation for Mental Health, "Caregiving affects us all. Regardless of culture or country, all people have been - currently are - or will need a caregiver during the course of their lifetime." Okay..... So, what is a caregiver? Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines caregiver as "A person who provides direct care (as for children, elderly people, or the chronically ill)".

National Do Not Call Registry
The National Do Not Call Registry was created to offer consumers a choice regarding telemarketing calls. The FTC's decision to create the National Do Not Call Registry was the culmination of a comprehensive, three-year review of the Telemarketing Sales Rule (TSR), as well as the Commission's extensive experience enforcing the TSR over seven years. The FTC held numerous workshops, meetings, and briefings to solicit feedback from interested parties and considered over 64,000 public comments, most of which favored creating the registry.
Website: www.DoNotCall.gov
Public Service Announcement:
Scammers have been making phone calls claiming to represent the National Do Not Call Registry. The calls claim to provide an opportunity to sign up for the Registry. These calls are not coming from the Registry or the Federal Trade Commission, and you should not respond to these calls. To add your number to the Registry you can call 888-382-1222 from the phone you wish to register, or visit the website - DoNotCall.gov
