Description
CareWise Solutions.org is a non-profit educational organization. Their focus is on the employee with caring responsibilities. Their Care Place Hub offers free resources, exclusive education programs, and a marketplace to purchase premium products and services for employees exhausted by caregiving demands.
As care needs increase due to aging, disease, and injury, family members prefer to remain independent in their homes for as long as possible. However, when they need help, they rely on family to fill the gap. CareWise Solutions is a solution for both the care of our aging population but also for their employed family members who step up to help out. Employees cannot sustain their income, careers, and lifestyle choices without these innovations.
