Caregiving ad hoc Committee
The Livable Community Caregiving ad hoc Committee
was formed in May 2016 to address the shortage of caregivers, both
formal (such as Certified Nursing Assistants, Certified Medication
Aides, Restorative Aides, Homemaker Health Aides) and informal
(uncertified aides, many times a spouse, child, or neighbor who provides
basic care in the home).
We are seeking others interested in creating ideas and solutions to help solve the caregiver shortage. The Caregiving ad hoc Committee would like to identify the needs of
caregivers in our community and take action on how to address those
needs. The group meets the first Thursday of each month at 2:30pm in
Room 202A of the Johnson County Health & Human Services Building,
855 S. Dubuque Street, Iowa City. If you are interested in joining the Caregiving ad hoc Committee, please e-mail maria.donohoe@kirkwood.edu
