Even as an experienced Registered Nurse I faced tremendous challenges with daily life navigation as a primary caregiver for my mom
Taking care of her was difficult but necessary as my heart wouldn't have it any other way.
When my mom passed, I was comforted in knowing that she received the best care I could possibly provide. But at what cost?
Caregivers suffer from hypertension, anxiety, depression and many other ailments secondary to their caregiving responsibilities. This garners yet another question, who cares for the caregivers?
I am reminded every day of the barriers that stand before caregivers and the struggles that they endure.
My mother and I journeyed together. We lived a life we couldn't have lived without her needing help and my holding her hand through it.

My mother and I journeyed together. We lived a life we couldn't have lived without her needing help and my holding her hand through it. It was beautiful, we bonded in ways that are inexplicable, we not only struggled against and fought a broken system but we also conquered some nearly impossible obstacles.
At the end of that journey I made a promise to carry her torch to light the path for a new journey, and that journey is ISCCO.
Our approach is to use the power of community to build a scaffold that will support caregivers in their endeavors.
Currently the average cost for an agency assigned caregiver is $50/hr with a four hour minimum.
ISCCO plans to reduce that cost to $20/hr for the consumer with a Two (2) hour minimum.

Our approach is to use the power of community to build a scaffold that will support caregivers in their endeavors.
Currently the average cost for an agency assigned caregiver is $50/hr with a four hour minimum.
ISCCO plans to reduce that cost to $20/hr for the consumer with a Two (2) hour minimum.
BUT, HOW?
We plan to fundraise and support existing home care agencies that are already providing quality services in the home.
Create Affordability, Accessibility and Normalization of Short-Time, At Home health Services.
Become the leader of reliable IN-HOME care resources by providing access to WRAP AROUND services for all individuals, providers and caregiving communities.
What if you had additional financial support for the short time services that you deliver?
What if you could stop and help add quality of life by assisting a neighbor on your way to or from your regular job?
What if short time care was affordable and easily accessible for yourself, your caregiver, distant family members?
What is a Shared Care Community?
Persons that live within a 5 mile radius that are in need of "SHORT-TIME" care due to health care challenges.
Caregivers (CNA's)that live within the same 5 mile radius providing "Short-Time" Services and increasing quality of care for those living within a shared care community.
What is Short-Time Care?
Short-Time care as defined by ISCCO in reference to services provided is 1-3 hours of Care at Home.
What kind of resources will ISCCO provide?
Iscco will provide "How-to" videos for all aspects of caregiving, CPR and other caregiving certifications. In addition, local health/home care resources will also be provided. We will help you navigate health services.
What are "Wrap Around" services?
Wrap Around service delivery is a team-based, collaborative approach to healthcare needs. A program that is flexible to family and individual persons. Delivering comprehensive care by having a number of organizations work together to provide a holistic support.
