National Volunteer Week 2025 runs from April 20-26. Volunteers make a difference in the lives of people every day, whether it's the communities impacted or the volunteers themselves. Volunteers contribute to stronger communities, improve individual well-being, and provide positive social change. This year, we want to shout out to our volunteers, letting you know how incredible your impact is in Boulder County. We send you love and thanks, always, for what you do!
Wellness Volunteers

Volunteer Medicare Counselors
We are incredibly fortunate to have a dedicated and outstanding group of volunteers who contribute their time, expertise, and passion to our Medicare Counseling program. Their continuous commitment to training and staying up-to-date on a broad range of information ensures they deliver top-notch service to Medicare-eligible beneficiaries. Their resourcefulness, commitment, and curiosity shine every day as they work tirelessly to find the best solutions for clients, especially in challenging situations.
During the Medicare Open Enrollment period of 2024, these exceptional volunteers assisted beneficiaries in reviewing their prescription drug coverage, leading to a total savings of $746,165.37. This remarkable achievement highlights not only their expertise but also their dedication to making a real difference in the lives of those they serve. Thank you!
Volunteer Visitor Program
Thank you for your sincere commitment to connect with an older adult in our community in a meaningful way! What a difference you make in the lives of your program partners and their caregivers (for those who have them) with your weekly social visits. When you share a walk or favorite activity, visit old haunts, and find new ones, or just chat, you take the time to pay attention, and it matters. I appreciate each of you. This program could not exist without you. Pictured here is one of our matches, Stephanie and Shirley.

Long-Term Care (LTC) Ombudsman Volunteers
We are so very fortunate to have three incredible volunteers supporting people who live in assisted livings and nursing homes in Boulder County. Our volunteer ombudsmen visit residents regularly and routinely, talk with them and listen to their experiences, and work with residents to preserve their quality of life and care. LTC Ombudsmen know the regulations, know the people who work in and live in assisted livings and nursing homes, helping residents, loved ones, and staff navigate LTC. We are continually impressed and grateful for the dedication and commitment of the volunteer LTC ombudsmen at the BCAAA.
Aging Advisory Council
Every single one of you are incredible, engaged advocates. Thank you for sharing what's happening in your city and community, while being able to take a broader vision of what's happening in the county, our state, and country. It was your efforts and interest that lead us to the Colorado State Capitol last month, and kept us contacting our elected officials to advocate for older adults, residents of long-term care, both paid and unpaid caregivers, and more over the past year. We appreciate your desire to learn and the incredible experience you bring to the table. Each of you are valuable in the conversations we have the first Friday of each month. Your volunteerism is deeply appreciated by the BCAAA.
LGBTQ+ Advisory Committee
The LGBTQ+ Program wants to thank our Advisory Committee Members, Sharon, Pat, and Larry, pictured here with Miss Jessica at the 2024 Lavender Gala. We couldn't plan the Lavender Gala without you!

In order to make informed choices, the Options Counseling meeting helps individuals understand next steps in the transition process, and the support and services they will receive. Dependent on individual care needs, Transition Coordination takes the responsibility in planning the use of Medicaid's Home and Community-Based Services to meet independent living goals.
Nursing home residents, staff, family members, community members, Long Term Care Ombudsman, or other professionals can request an Options Counseling meeting through this link.

  The Boulder County Area Agency on Aging (BCAAA) Caregiver Initiative is focused on empowering and supporting caregivers of older adults. Learn more about what we offer at boco.org/Caregiving.
Boulder County Community Services is not a healthcare provider and cannot provide medical advice. This resource is provided for informational purposes only. Individuals should seek medical advice directly from a licensed medical professional.
Ask a Caregiving Expert
Dear BCAAA,
I have taken on the role of caring for my Mom and realize I don't know how to determine what is best for her. Any ideas?
Signed, A Questioning Caregiver
Dear Questioning Caregiver,
Caring for a parent (or a spouse/partner) is one of the most profound responsibilities we can take on. Whether it’s helping with daily tasks, managing medical care, or making long-term living arrangements, caregiving requires patience, emotional intelligence, and strategic decision-making. To ensure the best possible care while maintaining balance in your own life, it’s essential to deeply understand your loved one’s needs and involve them in decision-making whenever possible.
Listen to Their Preferences and Concerns: The foundation of effective caregiving is understanding what your loved one wants and needs. Instead of assuming what’s best, engage them in open conversations. You should know what the biggest concerns about their care are, or what aspects of daily life are most important.
Family members and friends may know each other well, but there are some questions that we typically don’t ask each other. Click here to see "All About Me" from Our Family, Our Way. This tool can help you go deeper into this conversation (questions like, “If you were meeting someone for the first time, what is the most important thing they should know about you?”) This resource is designed to help care partners get to know what’s most important to the person with care needs and their preferences for certain aspects of care and support. Not only can this information be helpful in guiding family and friend care partners, but it can also be useful to paid care partners who may be part of your arrangement.
By prioritizing your Mother’s voice in the process, you not only respect her autonomy but also reduce resistance to change.
Assess the Care Recipient's Physical, Emotional, and Cognitive Needs: Care needs often extend beyond what’s visible. Consulting with medical professionals can provide clarity on the level of care required and help you plan accordingly. Indeed, bringing your person’s primary care provider (PCP) into the plan early can ensure that you have the full sense of a longer-term trajectory. A thorough assessment should consider the following:
-
Physical Health: Chronic conditions, mobility challenges, medication management, and daily living tasks. To provide effective care and assistance, at some point a professional might want to quantify your loved one’s ability to perform day-to-day tasks to determine how much help they need. They do this by measuring activities of daily living (ADLs) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs). It might help to familiarize yourself with these instruments by following this link.
-
Emotional Well-Being: Feelings of loneliness, depression, or anxiety, which can accompany aging or chronic illness.
-
Cognitive Function: Signs of memory loss, confusion, or dementia that may impact decision-making and safety. Tam Cummings, PhD, is a nationally recognized gerontologist and dementia expert. Click here to visit Tam's website. She has developed a tool to assess brain decline if your are concerned with dementia, located here.
Balance Their Independence with Safety: A major challenge in caregiving is balancing respect for autonomy with necessary interventions for safety. It’s natural for an aging parent or a spouse with health concerns to resist change. To ease this transition:
- Encourage small adjustments before making major changes (e.g., adding home modifications before discussing a move to assisted living, or consulting with a BCAAA Resource Specialist to learn if starting with a Volunteer Visitor is the right plan).
- Frame discussions around your Mother’s values, emphasizing how changes will help her maintain her quality of life, and by allowing additional help – it helps YOU.
- Present options rather than ultimatums to help your loved one feel in control.
Create a Support System: Caregiving is not a solo responsibility. Building a network of support—whether through family, friends, professionals, or community resources—can prevent burnout. Although your question is about a parent, for those reading and caring for a spouse, it’s especially important to maintain relationships outside of the caregiving role to avoid emotional isolation.
Plan for the Future: Many caregiving situations evolve over time. Having a plan in place can prevent crisis-driven decisions. Over the long run, these steps include:
- Discussing legal and financial matters, including power of attorney and advanced directives.
- Exploring long-term care options before they become necessary.
- Regularly reassessing care needs and adjusting accordingly.
BCAAA's Caregiving Resource Specialists are available to discuss caregiver concerns in full. Give our team a call at 303-441-1617 or email us at infoCaregiver@bouldercounty.gov.
