Elder and Adult Day Care
Two-thirds of Americans under the age of 60 expect to be responsible for an aging parent within the next 10 years (World at Work 2004). UC Davis is taking a proactive approach for our employees by providing this elder care resource webpage. If you don't find what you need here, feel free to email us at worklife@ucdavis.edu or call 752-5415.
As an elder caregiver, sensitive, understanding communication on issues of health and safety as well as legal and financial issues is a necessity. It should never be forgotten that loss in the form of decreased independence in all aspects of their life can be the overriding challenge and, as a caregiver, understanding this helps.
Below find Campus, Community and National Resources that will assist you in opening the conversations that will create a better quality of life for both you and your elder. Please remember that we are not recommending any of the service providers but simply providing the information and resources that we have found through our research.
