Testimonials:
“As a Wesley Health & Wellness Center Nurse, I knew the Caregiver U Programs – A Matter of Balance, Powerful Tools for Caregivers, and Savvy Caregiver – would provide great resources for the Elgin community. The support and encouragement from Faith Unger and the AGE of Central Texas is outstanding. They provide the professional materials and marketing advice to make the programs successful and get the word out. I appreciate the funding decisions by the St. David’s Foundation to provide these much needed programs, especially to rural communities. These programs are making a difference to our older adults and those who care for them. ”

“A Matter of Balance classes made me much more comfortable in that I feel I can cope with situations where my balance could be compromised. I’m much more aware of what each of us can do to help our balance and our personal safety.”
“I appreciated the feeling of connection with the leaders. They really made me feel they knew just where I was coming from. By the end of the class, I was able to do the walk step and marching without holding on to the chair for support!”

“Thanks for the excellent training; it will greatly benefit the caregivers and improve the quality of life for those receiving care.”
“I’ve had hours and hours of training on the subject of Alzheimer’s but this course was best I have ever had on the subject. Also, it made everyone comfortable to have such excellent meals and snacks. It was a time saver for me to not have to worry about fixing breakfast for myself. It was great!”
