— from Lahari —
In association with Cornerstone Healthcare Training, Lahari is offering a free online course in Basic Caregiver Training. Time and date to be determined according to interest.
The need for additional trained caregivers on Orcas is urgent due to the Covid19 pandemic. Time is of the essence. YOU ARE NEEDED NOW!
Lahari (laharionorcas.org) is a local nonprofit organization. Lahari’s mission is “to provide education, resources and support to assist aged or infirm people with living on Orcas Island up to and including provision of hospice care.”
Those interested can sign-up for the training by contacting Sally Coffin at 360-842-7743 or emailing sycoffin@rockisland.com.

Thank you so much, everyone associated with Lahari, and of course Sally! I was a caregiver until two years ago and a refresher course is quite welcome.
