Having to care for a disabled family member leaves caregivers with an array of responsibilities. Working, supporting a home, caring for other children and aging parents makes caregivers stressed and sometimes overwhelmed. Many times, caregivers help others so much that they forget to take care of themselves. Outside help and support helps to strengthen happy and healthy families. Caregivers should not feel alone, and deserve all the extra support they can get.

So how can caregivers get the help and support they need while receiving trusting and professional care for their disabled family member? Easy, you can call Mastercare, a company that offers client centered services and care planning to help clients increase independence. One of the company’s goals is to help clients accomplish tasks they would normally do for themselves if they did not have a disability-making life easier for the whole family.

After you decide to take the step to get extra support, there comes another question. How will I pay? Today’s economic crisis affects everyone, but especially people who need specialized long-term health care. As health care costs rise all across the state and nation, it is important we all get the most for our money. Together, we are able to keep costs low and money in your pocket.

To help support caretakers, Mastercare has RN and MSW supervisors to assess your family’s needs, help you to understand what help may be available, while providing you with the services you require. Life will be much less stressful with the help of professionals assisting and giving you expert knowledge in our easy to understand care plans.

Mastercare services are available 24 hours, 7 days a week, offering a team of trained and skilled staff members. Mastercare employees are carefully screened, bonded and insured, with up-to-date credentials. Our staff includes, but is not limited to: nurses, respite workers, chore workers and personal assistants/ habilitation (PAB) workers.
