Just recieved this from our friends at Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. If you are a caregiver – or an employer with employee caregivers on staff – please consider listening to the Sept 17th caregiving broadcast:
September 17, 2008 1-2:00 pm ET
“The next Caregiving broadcast sponsored by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Department of Health and Human Services New Freedom Initiative Subcommittee (NFI) is scheduled for September 17, 2008, from 1:00 p.m.—2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time).
The broadcast will focus on Innovative Employer Caregiving Programs and include presentations from employers and other organizations that have developed and conducted successful programs for employed caregivers. Presenters will discuss their experience with these programs and how they can be replicated by others to help employed caregivers.
