We enrich lives and strengthen communities through services and engagement for individuals at all ages, beginning with those most in need.
More than 400,000 New Yorkers are living with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias. It often falls to a family member, such as a partner, child, or parent, to provide the care their loved one needs to remain at home. If you are helping a loved one to perform the usual activities of daily life, you are a caregiver. If you are seeking caregiver support and assistance for someone who is 60 years or older, frail and ill, or you are 55-year-old plus, we can help.
Facing the challenges of providing care, you may feel lost or overwhelmed. You may experience stress and anxiety, neglect your own health and comfort, and become increasingly isolated.
You are not alone.
Care NYC has a dedicated team of social workers available throughout the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island to help you with the unique challenges you face. We can help you to enjoy the time that you spend with your loved one while providing care.
Care NYC also provides support to caregivers of older adults living with chronic illness. And, for those caring for a minor as a grandparent, we can help you manage this tremendous responsibility.
