Family Caregiver Resource Guide - Santa Fe 2016 | 页面 2

Javier M. Gonzales, Mayor Ron J. Vialpando, Director Dear Community Members, The Family Caregiver Resource Guide is an essential tool for Santa Fe seniors and families who are caring for or supporting loved ones. So much more than a simple directory, this guide can connect you to the organizations and individuals, both at the City of Santa Fe and in the community, who are working to address the unique issues and challenges presented by aging. Santa Fe is one family, one community, and as our friends and family members grow older, it should never mean that they are excluded from our civic life. We’re going the extra mile to guarantee that as Santa Feans grow older they hold on to their freedom and dignity, whether they choose to age in place, enter a residential senior home, or live with a family member. 2 If you don’t find what you need here, or even if you do, but want or need a little extra help navigating the waters of aging in Santa Fe, our dedicated Senior Services staff is here to serve. Sincerely, Javier M. Gonzales, Mayor ptfcg.com ptfcg.com In real terms, that means ensuring that relevant services are available and then working to connect you directly to those services using tools like this guide. From transportation to home care, from insurance to residential living, this guide is your source when you or a loved one needs help dealing with one of the most challenging things any of us face. 3
