Community Caregivers provides services that enable individuals of all ages to maintain their independence, dignity and quality of life within their homes and communities. We accomplish our mission by offering non-medical assistance to local residents who might otherwise be hospitalized or institutionalized, and by helping home caregivers manage the physical, emotional and financial toll that continuous caregiving can take.
We serve residents of the Towns of Berne, Bethlehem, Guilderland, Knox and New Scotland in Albany County, New York. As of 2012, we also provide services in the City of Albany. There is no age restriction for our clients - we will assist adults aged 18 to 118. Minor children may be served, too, as long as a parent or legal guardian also becomes a client and agrees to stay with the child for the duration of any Community Caregivers service.
