Staffed by a social worker and a public health nurse, and housed in the County's Aging and Adult Services g g Bureau, PACT contracts with local organizations to assist family caregivers with necessary support ort and transition services. PACT provides a continuum of services to a care-giving population that has traditionally been isolated during the difficult time period of the first weeks/months after placement of a loved one. PACT enables family caregivers to maximize their ability to keep their family me in the"most integrated and appropriate setting"possible.
