Providing care for someone can be challenging whether you have cared for someone in the past or this is your first time. Each caregiving situation and person you care for has unique needs. To help unpaid caregivers strengthen their caregiving skills, knowledge, and receive ongoing support, we created WeCare. WeCare is available at no cost to you and is an easy-to-use web-based application with short training videos and resources that will help you increase your knowledge and skills based on your individual caregiving needs.
By completing a short enrollment form, WeCare will develop a personalized library of short, informative video courses you can access anytime and anywhere from your smartphone, tablet, or laptop to fit your busy lifestyle. A Training Navigator is available to support you throughout your journey by text message, e-mail, or phone conversation.
WeCare offers:
- Real-time text messaging with a Care Navigator to help guide you through the training.
- Motivational text-messages and reminders to resources and videos.
- Personalized video and resource library specific to your situation and needs.
- Easy access and log-in using your phone number.
