Caregiving

Due to illness, frailty or disability, our loved ones may need help in caring for themselves at home or in the community. A family member, partner, relative, friend, or even neighbours, can step in as a caregiver to support their care needs e.g. medical needs, emotional needs, day-to-day activities, and key decision-making.

Caregivers are supported with these aspects:

• Access to valuable caregiving resources through various modes

• Being able to take breaks through respite care services

• Financial support to reduce financial burden from care expenses

• Workplace support to help caregivers balance work life and their loved ones’ caregiving needs

• Caregiver empowerment through training, and emotional support through counselling services and community networks
