In this episode, our guest, Mike Michel is The Caregiver Guy. He is the Founder of the CareTrainr app. This Caregiver App that addresses caregiver burnout and mental health. He also shares about the Consumer Direct Care Program. This allows states like Florida to have the opportunity to use Medicaid to support enrollees with long-term care needs and their families by developing consumer direction programs that allow family members to be hired to provide care. Last but not least in this action packed episode, Mike shares with us what the "hat challenge" was during the month of August and how he plans to make this an annual challenge in order to provide respite care for caregivers - Relieve a Caregiver DAy.
