An Act relative to family members serving as caregivers

This bill proposes changes to the Massachusetts health care system to better support family members who serve as unpaid caregivers for relatives receiving home care services. The legislation aims to establish a formal recognition program that would allow these family caregivers to receive training, respite care services, and other resources to help manage the demands of their role. By creating a structured support framework, the bill seeks to improve the well-being of both the caregivers and the individuals they support without altering the core funding or eligibility rules for existing home care programs.
