Community Outreach and Development Director Asheley Cooper is joined with Laura Jane Ward of Trualta on the latest edition of At Home With ADTS.
The duo shared information about NC-Caregivers.com, a free online resource for caregivers in North Carolina.
The learning platform addresses real issues, with in-depth/digestible lessons, practical steps, and guided support from a care manager.
The free portal doesn't require an app, features short lessons created by experts in aging and is easy to use for all ages. It is also completely private and accessible 24/7.

Other topics of discussion include the cost of caregiving and key issues surrounding those that provide care for others.
Laura Jane Ward is part of Trualta's growth team. She has held a variety of roles in nursing homes and the aging network and is passionate about supporting caregivers.
Ward aims to find innovative, tangible solutions for caregivers and their care recipients. She holds a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Appalachian State and is pursuing a master's in Gerontology.
