Help At Your Fingertips
The organizations and professionals on this page provide knowledge and experience to seniors and their caregivers. They may offer videos/DVD's, audio tapes, books, pamphlets, newsletters, magazines and help lines. Many offer services and products. Some offer websites, which makes much of their information available right now!
Also, if these resources cannot help you with a specific issue, many times they can point you in the direction of the information or solution you are trying to find.
Of course, you can always feel free to give us a call us at (805)649-5143. We would be happy to help in any way we can.
