Southern Senior Care Blog

Hello Southern Senior Care Blog Readers,

My name is Amanda, and I had never anticipated being a caregiver or being responsible for my mother who has usually done most of the caregiving in my family. It is really stressful for me and my siblings to find information about taking care of my mom since we try to do it ourselves, being on a limited budget. However, we don’t always have time, and working with an agency can be rather expensive. I found a great website called TheCaringSpace.com where you can post a listing for free and get connected with caregivers in your area. It is a great option for people who want to independently connect with caregivers in an affordable, easy way without working with a third party. The site even allows caregivers to provide background checks and references so you don’t waste your time on people who aren’t serious. There is a lot of good information provided for people like me who don’t really know the ropes when it comes to caregiving or where to start when it comes to seeking respite care for my family.

Thanks!

Amanda
