PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR
Caregivers
Support and Training Designed for You as a Caregiver
Caring for a loved one with a serious illness can feel overwhelming – but you don’t have to do it alone. Cedar Valley Hospice is here to provide you with the training and support you need to feel confident and prepared to care for your loved one at home. Plus, we offer extra help just for you, including respite care, grief support and volunteer assistance. Whenever you have questions or need support, simply call us at 800.626.2360.Â
Respite Care
Caring For You While We Care For Them
Caring for someone you love can be demanding, and it’s important that you take time to recharge. Cedar Valley Hospice offers respite care – short-term relief of three to five days at a time – at our Hospice Home so you can rest, refresh and come back stronger, because your well-being matters just as much as theirs.Â
Grief Support
Designed For You
If you’re grieving the loss of a loved one or facing a life-limiting diagnosis, Cedar Valley Hospice is here to walk alongside you. Our grief support services are open to everyone in the community, including caregivers. Whether you prefer group support or one-on-one counseling, we tailor discussions to what matters most to you. Topics may include managing emotions, honoring your loved one’s memory, knowing when to reach out, practicing self-care and more.Â
Volunteer AssistanceÂ
Helping You When You Need It Most
Our caring, trained volunteers are here to support you and your loved one in many practical ways, including:
- Running errands – like picking up prescriptions or groceries
- Giving you a much-needed break from caregiving
- Providing compassionate companionship
If you or someone you care about could use a little extra help, contact Cedar Valley Hospice, or call 319.272.2002, today. We’re ready to support you.
