Transparency: I work with CaringBridge and we are a free nonprofit social network that allows family to communicate & coordinate support and help for those on a health journey. We don't provide caregiver services, but we are a tool many caregivers use to coordinate help.

At the moment I'm fortunate to not have a situation in my life (like sick/elderly parents) where I need to figure out caregiving services. TBH, I have no idea what I'd do. I'd probably look at paid services, though I assume that can get super expensive, fast.
