Services for Family Caregivers at UCLA
recognition, education, support, resources, respite and self-care
In a family emergency and its aftermath, the primary focus is on the identified patient or survivor and important needs of others are often overlooked. Illness and injury affects everyone in the family, especially caregivers who have many added responsibilities.
The Stroke Association of Southern California and the Los Angeles Caregivers Resource Center understand the contribution and sacrifice that caregivers make for their loved ones and both SASC and LACRC provide needed support to family caregivers at UCLA.
