Many people live far away from their family or friends who need help. If you don’t live nearby, you can still provide support and assistance as a long-distance caregiver.
From a distance, you may be able to:
- Serve as an information coordinator by researching information about relevant health conditions, navigating changing needs, and overseeing insurance benefits
- Arrange for in-home care by hiring professional caregivers, home health aides, or nursing aides
- Order medical equipment, medicines, and other supplies the person needs
Find more ways you can help with caregiving from afar.
