Being a Caregiver for Someone You Love
What does it mean to be a caregiver? Caregiving is a different experience for everyone depending on how much care your loved one requires, which can range from a friendly visit once in a while to 24 hour care.
Staying Involved When You Don't Live nearby
Long-distance, or remote, caregiving has quickly become a reality. Long distance caregivers are usually family members who provide support, care or care coordination from at least an hour away. Although the distance may change, the responsibility and dedication remains the same, and Easterseals has many resources available to help you out. 
Planning for the Future
Whether you’re 39 or 99, it’s never too early to start planning. For most of us, the majority of our older years are spent healthy and active. However, many people experience an eventual need for assistance due to acquired disability, aging related conditions and/or other illnesses. With thoughtful planning, and services and supports, most of us can continue to live in, contribute to and stay connected to our communities.

Military & Veteran Caregivers
As was highlighted in the RAND “Hidden Heroes: America’s Military Caregivers” study, it is projected that there are 5.5 million family members and friends caring for our nation's service members and veterans in need of support. Military Caregivers often have fewer supports and experience higher levels of burden, stress, and physical strain. Easterseals offers help, hope and answers, whether you're the son of a Korean War veteran now experiencing memory loss or the spouse of an Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF)/Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) veteran experiencing Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS).
