Hearts and Hands

Caring for a loved one can become stressful at times. This is where Hearts and Hands is here to help! We know that caring for mom or dad can put an added stress on your life. Wondering how you'll set up transportation to medical appointments or get them groceries while taking care of your own family is a big task. Let us help relieve you of some of those tasks by signing your loved one up to become a care receiver. For more information on the services Hearts and Hands offers to the community visit our website www.hnhcares.org or call (716) 406-8311.

The month of October is National Health Literacy month, and there is no better time to talk with your loved one about understanding their health. The MyHealthfinder tool is a great place to start the conversation.
