This section is coming together
We are building out guidance for the moments when you take on the carer role: getting help, managing work, finding respite, looking after yourself.
In the meantime, the at home guides cover many of the practical decisions, and the when someone has died section is here for those who need it.
Planned guides
- For when you have just become the carer
- For when you need help — Te Whatu Ora pathways, home help, Funded Family Care
- For when caring affects your work — NZ employment law, leave entitlements
- For when relationships strain
- For when you need a break — respite options
- For when caring becomes too much
- For when you are a long-distance carer
- For when you are a young carer
