Della started attending Sunflower Adult Day Services two days per week. At Sunflower, she was able to resume the painting, gardening and musical activities that were such an important part of her life. Pete got the periodic relief and support he needed to be able to care for Della at home right up to the end of her life.

CAREGIVER SUPPORT

Providing education and support for caregivers is an important part of the mission of Sunflower Adult Day Services.

Being a caregiver for another adult can be a challenging role. Chances are that when you took on that role, you had neither formal training nor previous experience as a caregiver. If you are like most people, you are learning how to be a caregiver by jumping in and doing it.

At Sunflower, we believe that by providing caregiver information, support and access to resources, we can help you in your commitment to keep your loved one at home. This takes several forms:

One-on-One Consultation with Care Staff
Our nursing and care staff are always ready to talk with you about your caregiving situation. You will find that they have a wealth of helpful information and problem-solving ideas.

Caregiver Education and Self-Help Support Group
Getting together with other caregivers is a great way to learn real-life, practical strategies for caregiving. It is also a positive, constructive way to both give and receive encouragement. The Alzheimer’s Support & Education Group is meeting every Tuesday at 1pm at Eaglecrest Retirement Community. Location 1501 E. Magnolia, Salina. Contact Jerri @ 785.820.7226. This support group will also provide financial assistance to families who attend Sunflower as well as those needing home care.
