Caregiver support
Being a caregiver may be one of the most important roles you ever have. It's important to remember to prioritize your well-being and seek support when needed. Taking care of a loved one can be rewarding, but it can also be challenging and exhausting at times.
Whether caring for an aging senior, a loved one living with complex healthcare needs, or a Veteran, you may need assistance with one or more daily activities. Sentara Medicare health plans can provide support with basic daily activities, including:
- Grocery shopping and errands
- Gardening
- Meal preparation
- Light housework
- Tech help
