Life Time Learning

Life Time Learning is an online education program with over 70 hours of training for caregivers.  We open 8 hours of Life Time Learning to family caregivers every November.  With this education, you can receive advice on basic caregiving practices and information that will help you cope through tough times.

When caring for your family members is your responsibility, you want to give them the best possible attention.  Learning is a process that never ends for a family caregiver, and there is always more to know when it comes to caregiving.

At Arms Around Family Caregivers, we want to give you the resources you need to learn more about how to best care for your family member.  In September through November we will open the Family caregiving section of our Life Time Learning program to everyone.  Now you can receive 8 free hours of high quality family caregiver training.

      My wife and I are members of the sciwdnah generation in a sense. Our 54 year old disabled (from birth) daughter was under out personal care at home until 2010. She is mentally and physically impaired, partially paralyzed, confined to a wheelchair, is incontinent, has ESRD requiring dialysis three times a week and currently lives in a retirement facility where we struggle to get the kind of care she must have to survive. She resists any personal care from almost anyone but me (father). My wife’s memory is fading, she has periods of confusion, has vision problems and has lost her sense of taste. We are 78 and are working on plans to provide for our daughter’s future. For now, I provide the minimal care required for my wife. I have been diagnosed with leukemia but currently do not require treatments.In spite of our daughter living in an excellent retirement facility, we are still required to help with her care, manage her personal affairs and shepherd her through multiple hospital events every year. Our costs are high our income is limited. We have excellent legal and professional advisers. In spite of all the excellent help, we feel alone in our daily struggles. We worry that we are making the right decisions
