Caregivers Count Too! Toolkit
An Online Toolkit to Help Practitioners
Assess the Needs of Family Caregivers
Now more than ever, involving family caregivers is a necessary part of working with older people and adults with disabilities in all practice settings. As our population ages, more people with chronic and disabling conditions are choosing to live at home or in the community, launching their family members and close friends into action as caregivers.

- Introduction
- Section 1 – Getting Started
