Caregiver Resources


The National Family Caregiver Support program was established with the enactment of the Older Americans Act Amendments of 2000. The 2006 amendments to the Older Americans Act call for the program to provide information, support, and assistance to family and friends who help care for:
  • A person age 60 and older
  • A person with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia regardless of age, and
  • Grandparents or relative caregivers 55 years of age and older who are caring for grandchildren under age 18, or who are caring for someone with a severe disability who is 19 to 59 years of age.
Services available through the caregiver support program include:
The Aging and Disability Resource Center of Waukesha County (ADRC) realizes that caregiving is one of the most demanding, stressful, yet rewarding jobs there is.

The ADRC offers caregiver support that can help you in your caregiving role. Based on available funding, support may include:
  • Assistance identifying and accessing available resources.
  • Caregiver newsletter.
  • Emergency alert monitoring systems.
  • Medication management assistance, with use of an automated pill dispenser.
  • Home delivered meals.
  • Grab bar and ramp installation.
  • Respite care to enable caregivers to be temporarily relieved from their caregiving responsibilities, whether their loved one is elderly or a grandchild, including: •Personal care and bathing assistance
  • Homemaker services
  • Bill management assistance
  • General in-home care
  • Adult Day Center care
  • Overnight facility care
  • Free, open Resource Library with books and media for caregivers to checkout
The first step for receiving assistance with caregiving is to contact the Aging and Disability Resource Center of Waukesha County (ADRC) by calling (262) 548-7848 or 1-800-677-2372.
