I’ve spent some time studying this site, and find it has many very valuable resources, and support for the caregiver. I think if you visit their website you will be sure to find something that can assist you. A short excerpt from their site reads:
“The American Association for Caregiver Education (AACE) was founded in 1998 by a group of social service and healthcare professionals knowledgeable in all aspects of the family caregiver experience. They recognized that family caregiving could occur at any time and in any combination of people, regardless of age, gender, relationship, or illness. They also understood that family caregiving was 15% clinical and 85% practical problem solving.”
“In response to this critical need, AACE assembled a more diverse team of family caregiver experts whose formal training including elder and disability issues, special needs, family law, software technology, longevity and chronic need financial planning, and educational development.”
Their site is:

If you or someone you know is a caregiver, and in need of resources, education, and direction; you may find this website helpful.
