Respite Care Program

Grants of $1000 are awarded to individuals caring for a senior 60 or over. These grants give the caregiver the opportunity to either have someone come to their home to care for their loved one for a few hours each week, have them attend a “daycare” program, or when necessary, place them in a care facility for a few days.  All this enables the caregiver to take a break; enabling them to continue for a much longer period of time to care for their loved one in the home preventing unnecessary and/or early institutionalization of seniors so that they can age in place, consequently saving the state of Nevada Medicaid program hundreds of thousands of dollars each year.

If you are a caregiver of a senior citizen, reach out to Helping Hands of Vegas Valley. We are here to help. Our program gives temporary relief to caregivers and their families.
