NYS Caregiver Guide 2021

Caregivers (you) play an important role in our society. If you support the needs of someone who is unable to care for themself due to age-related conditions, illness, injury, or disability, consider this guide your starting place. Being a caregiver is not always easy, but it can be rewarding. Caregivers must find and accept ways to care for themselves, too. This guide contains tips and plans that you can use, as well as legal and medical definitions and information about your rights. Perhaps most importantly, you will find a list of resources—not only for the person you support, but also for yourself. 10
