At Lifeline, we don’t just care about the caregivers. We are caregivers.
Like you, we worry about parents who live too far away for us to check on them. Maybe you have a father who lives alone and gets up in the middle of the night. Your mother may have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, diabetes, or another chronic condition.
We feel the pressure. We're doing our best to care for our parents and our children. We miss work for their doctors’ appointments and then pay out of pocket when insurance isn’t enough. We want our loved ones to stay independent, and we want them to stay in their own homes as long as possible. That's why our caregiver resources and products are here to provide valuable advice, support and guidance.
This understanding, this compassion – that is
the Lifeline difference.
