As part of Aging Our Way, PA, the Pennsylvania Department of Aging (PDA) was tasked with creating a dynamic, interactive, and comprehensive “caregiver toolkit” to address the key challenges faced by informal, unpaid caregivers and provide practical solutions and resources to support their entire caregiving journey.

The PA CareKit is a collection of tools, information, and resources to address key challenges in the caregiver journey. It’s here to support your role, your time, and your needs – because caregiving rarely comes with instructions.

• Take the Understanding Your Needs Quiz to receive custom recommendations and resources just for you.
• Use the Printable Worksheets to help you work through complicated care tasks.
• Explore the Caregiving Resources to strengthen the care you provide and the Self-care Resources to take better care of yourself.

Support starts with a simple truth: You don’t have to do this alone.

The PA CareKit is a product of Aging Our Way, PA – Pennsylvania’s 10-year strategic plan to transform the infrastructure and supports for older adults as we age.
