Support for caregivers
In Florida alone, there are over 2.7 million family caregivers1 providing care each year to family members or friends. A caregiver is anyone who helps take care of someone, whether it’s a child, an aging adult, or someone who is sick or who is living with a disability. If you know a caregiver who needs support, encourage them to visit FloridaBlue.com/Caregiver. If you’re a caregiver, join our Florida Blue Facebook online support group – Caregiver Connections.
