Caregiver Support Services at Alzheimer’s Alliance of Smith County is the umbrella that houses Client Services, the Day Club program, and the Respite Care Assistance program. Client Services offers comprehensive case management by an LMSW with assistance from a Community Healthcare Worker. Day Club is a respite for both the person with dementia and their caregiver in four-hour intervals with trained staff/volunteers in a safe environment. The Respite Care Assistance program offers families up to 40 hours of in-home respite to determine the next steps. Respite provides opportunities to visit long-term facilities, interview in-home care, or plan an early retirement to stay home.
