I appreciate this site very much but I would like to also connect to caregivers in my local area. I have googled, email etc without much luck. Lots of spouse groups. Does anyone have any experience with this? Thanks,

I hope that helps. Let us know if you have any other questions.
What kind of caregiver are you looking for? If it is as simple as Adult Day Sitting, you may try something like "home instead" care. The company I work for has a sister company that does this type of work. This type of company won't touch the person unless there is a medical need (CPR), they are mostly for companionship. If you are looking for something more hands on, you may need some sort of home health company like "caretenders". Normally, the companionship type of care you will have to pay for and if it is a home health type care, you may have luck with insurance paying for it. Hope that helps
