ARCH and the Respite Care Association of Wisconsin are pleased to host this webinar for Lifespan Respite grantees and partners, Exploring Respite Registries to Reach Family Caregivers, June 16, 2022. This webinar provides useful information if you are thinking about establishing or enhancing a respite-specific registry. |
Description |
The direct care workforce crisis has impacted the availability of respite providers to support family caregivers. Some states, through their Lifespan Respite Programs, have developed and implemented respite registries to make it easier for family caregivers to find trusted providers. PHI also tracks matching service registries throughout the country, which "match" home care consumers with workers — based on needs, preferences, and availability. In this webinar, we will hear from three state Lifespan Respite Programs that have respite-specific registries, from PHI on additional state direct care worker directories, and Rewarding Work which maintains worker registries in several states that are open to consumers, workers, and home care agencies, often with support from public funds. |
