In-home caregivers help clients who receive In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) live safely at home instead of in a nursing care facility. A woman named Kristine who has disabilities shares just how vital they are. She's speaking with TheServiceStation along with one of her caregivers. They're talking about the nature of the caregiver-client relationship, the difference home workers make in a person's daily life and the need for more in-home caregivers as Riverside County's aging population quickly grows.
