You may only consider yourself a wife, husband, daughter, son or grandchild, but if you are caring for a loved one who is aging, a child dealing with a chronic condition or living with a disability, then you are a caregiver too. The Arizona Caregiver Coalition is unique. Our sole purpose is to support caregivers and their families.
We offer support and help finding access to information, assistance, answers, new ideas and helpful options for you and your loved one. Mary lives with late stage Alzheimer's so Patty spends about 9 hours daily to assist her with things like bathing, cooking, dressing, and going to the doctor's office for appointments.
