Redwood Caregiver Resource Center

The Redwood Caregiver Resource Center is a program of North Coast Opportunities, Inc. The mission of Redwood CRC is to help families and communities master the challenges of caring for adults with brain disorders through programs and services that address the emotional, physical, and financial needs of family caregivers. We provide information and assistance to families and caregivers of adults with brain impairments due to injury or disease, as well as to the caregivers of the frail elderly.

Services

A trained Redwood CRC family consultant helps you understand what a diagnosis means and will develop a personal plan of action which best suits you and your family’s caregiving needs. After a family consultation, these services may also be offered: Individual and Group Support; Legal Consultations; Respite Care.

Individual and Group Support When it helps just to talk, we’re here to listen, either one-on-one or in a group of people coping with similar concerns. In order to help caregivers share experiences and ideas to ease the stress of caregiving, counseling sessions, specialized classes and support groups led by professionals are offered in a supportive environment.

Legal Consultations Personal consultation is offered with attorneys experienced in estate and financial matters, conservatorships, powers of attorney, eligibility for government programs and other benefits.

Respite Care Redwood CRC helps families locate appropriate respite care for a loved one. Limited financial assistance may be offered to help with the expense of in-home aids, daycare, overnight care, weekend respite or transportation for a family member with brain impairment.
