November is designated as National Caregiver Appreciation Month, and it serves as an excellent reminder to honor the people who devote their time and resources to the service of others. The caregiver community is truly an inspiring group of people who are dedicated to assisting with the special needs of people with disabilities and ongoing medical conditions.
In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) care providers help the most vulnerable in our community. IHSS care providers may work long hours, perform physically demanding tasks daily, and place the needs of others above themselves. In Santa Clara County, there are more than 27,000 individuals who have chosen to assume this responsibility.
This November, in honor of National Caregivers Appreciation Month, join Public Authority Services by Sourcewise in finding opportunities to uplift the care providers we know and show them gratitude for their efforts.
