Byline - February 2, 2011
The Department of Veterans’ Affairs has launched of a toll-free national Caregiver Support Line at (855) 260-3274. The Caregiver Support Line was created to recognize the significant contributions made by caregivers in allowing veterans to remain at home surrounded by family and friends.
The line is available Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m., and on Saturdays from 10:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Eastern Time. Licensed clinical social workers will be available to answer questions, listen to concerns and directly link callers to the Caregiver Support Coordinator at their local VA medical center. Each VA medical center has a Caregiver Support Coordinator who can locate assistance tailored to the particular situation.
