Resource Information and
Referral
It is important for caregivers to
receive assistance and support for specific needs
and situations
Often caregivers call to ask questions about a
specific need (such as transportation, medical
equipment and supplies, nursing services).
An elderly woman asked if financial assistance
was available. Her husband, whom she had been
looking after at home since his stroke, was now
diagnosed with cancer and required treatment in
Victoria. They could not afford the 4 night stay.
We referred her to relevant resources and followed
up to see that she had found the assistance she
needed.
