Caring for the Caregiver

Caregiving can be hard and often caregivers feel alone.

At CGSI (Caregiver Support Initiative), we provide the tools to make caregiving just a little easier.

We offer Caregiver Support through:

• “in person” support groups

• workshops designed for caregiving needs

• resources list available for caregivers

Additional Support

The population of Bartow County is quickly increasing. As the population of our county grows and ages, the need for caregiver support and community education will increase.

That’s why, in addition to the support of caregivers, we designed specific educational workshops relevant to our Senior population on:

• Scams targeting Seniors

• Aging at home

• Isolation and loneliness

• Legal and financial preparation as we age

• Many more topics for Seniors

Did you know?

The Alzheimer’s Association shows Bartow County has a 65+ population of 15,531 (approximately 14.20% of the total population).

• It’s estimated that 1 in 9 (about 10.7%) of those age 65 and older or approximately 1,600 people in Bartow County are living with Alzheimer’s or other dementia-related diseases.

• That number is expected to increase as the population in Bartow County grows and ages. One report indicates that “baby boomers” are turning 65 at a rate of 10,000 a day.

According to the CDC, most people living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia (80%) are cared for in their homes.

• The Alzheimer’s Association, reports that 60% of dementia caregivers report high or very high-stress levels, and an estimated 40% experience clinical depression. NIH reported that studies found caregivers of those with dementia have higher levels of burdens than other caregivers.
