Family caregiving is a job! You can get paid for it!

December 1, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Parents with children who have special needs have the opportunity to get paid for being a caregiver. We know from personal experience how difficult caregiving can be. Being a family caregiver can be life changing for your entire family and improve the care that your loved kiddo receives.

Parents raising and taking care of their own children with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (IDD, autism, cerebral palsy, motor impairment, medically fragile, etc.) can be part of a family CNA program through Medicaid.

Wellspring is committed to helping parents provide the best care for their children for years to come.

Aaron Van Dam, is an executive nurse leader who has a background in both pediatric acute inpatient and outpatient autism care at Children’s Hospital Colorado. His clinical experience includes Pediatric Critical Care and Clinical Risk Management. He is based out of Denver, Colorado. He strives for innovative nursing care that supports families in their healthcare journey. He has driven best practice at state and national levels and is quality focused and data driven with innovative care approaches. He received his Bachelors of Science in Nursing from Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and his Masters of Science in Nursing Leadership from the University of Colorado. Aaron is the Director of Nursing at Wellspring, where the mission is to help families in Colorado provide the best care possible for their children with special needs. Wellspring is committed to providing financial, emotional, and medical support when it matters most.

Light snacks will be provided for this meetup by Wellspring.
