If you are caring for a sick loved one and need answers, you can find
the help you need in an upcoming one-day intensive training event for
home caregivers set for Feb. 23 at Randolph Community College. This
seminar will offer a variety of topics on issues of caregiving in the
home and will be of special interest to family caregivers and
volunteers, as well as allied health professionals.
RCC’s
fifth annual Caregiver College is being co-sponsored by Hospice of
Randolph County; Randolph Hospital; Community Home Care & Hospice;
Cross Road Retirement Community; Randolph County Senior Adults
Association; Randolph County Public Library; Warren Coble, Social
Security and senior services advisor; Therapeutic Alternatives; North
Carolina Family Caregiver Support Program; Home Instead Senior Care; and

The Caregiver College, scheduled for
8:30 a.m. – 3 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 23, at RCC’s new corporate training
facility in the Continuing Education and Industrial Center on the
Asheboro Campus, will feature keynote speaker Teepa Snow, an
occupational therapist specializing in dementia care and dementia
education. Her topics will include “Making Moments of Joy—It’s What You
Choose to Do as a Caregiver,” and “Learning the Difference Between
Letting Go and Giving Up.”
