Caregiving & Aging

Caregiver Coaching and Consultation


Experienced staff members help caregivers find the best way to provide quality care while still maintaining a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

What does a caregiver consultant do? 
The caregiver consultant, or coach, helps caregivers and their families:

  • coordinate services
  • solve problems together
  • cope with daily challenges
  • facilitate family meetings
  • plan ahead

You and your caregiver consultant can meet in your home, at FamilyMeans, or in another location convenient for you.

Our caregiver consultants also are designated by the Stillwater Area ACT on Alzheimer's Team as Dementia Resource Navigators, ready to equip you to work through complex issues, make better decisions, and feel less alone and stressed as you face the many challenges of dementia.

Caregiver Companion Cards, print at home cards that make it easy for caregivers to discreetly share with others that their companion has memory loss, and ask for their patience. These cards are especially helpful at restaurants and grocery stores, but can be used in many different settings.

How much does this service cost?  

These services are provided to people of all income levels using a sliding fee scale. No caregiver is denied service because of inability to pay.
