Kentucky Caregiver Resource Guide

Caregiving may be one of the most important roles you will ever take on in your life. You may have become a caregiver suddenly or perhaps your role has evolved over time. No matter where you are in the continuum of caregiving—starting to plan, helping with a big move, or taking care of a family member in your home—having resources at your fingertips will make the process easier.

Kentucky Caregiver Resource Guide (2016)



With many organizations in Kentucky offering different types of help and services, it can be a challenge to sort out the specific type of help or services best suited for your needs. AARP developed this resource guide with you— the caregiver—in mind as a starting point to help you find the services and supports you need throughout your caregiving journey.

We hope this resource guide assists you with:

  • Help you get the type of assistance you need. This directory lists many government and nonprofit resources, which you can access both in-person and online.
  • Help you connect with others. You’ll discover,if you have not already, that you’re a part of a community of caregivers and caregiver supporters. You are truly not alone.
  • Help take care of yourself. This is vitally important but something that many caregivers often overlook. The act of caregiving can take a physical and mental toll on the caregiver. So, it’s important that you make selfcare a top priority.
