Caregiver Tipsheets

   

The Metropolitan Caregiver Connections Collaborative has created some very useful "tip sheets" that are designed to be used with the caregivers of elders. The sheets are intended to be used by Living at Home/Block Nurse Program staff members to sit down with a caregiver and provide one on one education that is specific to their situation. Information sheets are provided that can be used by the Program staff to better understand how to use the tip sheets. Education on use of the tip sheets is very important. To learn more, contact Elderberry Institute at 800-320-1707. Copies of the tip sheets and information sheets can be downloaded by clicking on the links below.  The sheets are broken down by category in order for you to easily find the proper information. The tip sheets are intended to be printed front and back on card stock.
