Web Site Targets Family Caregivers


The National Family Caregivers Association and Intel Corp. have launched an online community for family members, nurses, social workers and others who care for the aged and chronically ill.

The site, connectingforcare.com, offers a variety of networks for caregivers to join based on their specific needs and interests. Forums and message boards foster discussions on issues or concerns, and visitors can post questions. The site also provides information on chronic diseases and conditions and a section where patients and caregivers can share their stories.

Family members who are caregivers provide 80% of all the long-term care for those with chronic illness or disabilities, says Suzanne Mintz, president and co-founder of the National Family Caregivers Association. More information on the organization is available at thefamilycaregiver.org.
