North Dakota Family Caregiver Support Program¶
North Dakota's Family Caregiver Support Program helps unpaid family members and friends caring for older adults, people with Alzheimer's disease or another dementia, grandchildren or young relatives, and adult children with disabilities. Services include information, caregiver coordinator assistance, counseling, support groups, training, respite, and supplemental services.
North Dakota offers information about local services and supports, assistance from trained caregiver coordinators, counseling, support groups, training, respite care for caregivers who provide 24-hour care, and supplemental services for incontinence supplies and assistive devices such as shower benches or safety rails. Services are provided at no cost to qualifying people, with an opportunity for voluntary contribution. The caregiver handbook says the program may pay for respite in the home or approved out-of-home settings, including qualified service providers, qualified family members, and approved facility settings.
