Nevada Caregivers recognition

Three Fallonites receive awards
Nevada Caregivers recognition

Three Fallonites were recognized last month by the Nevada Caregivers Coalition during their Caregiver Recognition Virtual Event. The Coalition honored 56 caregivers across Nevada in the 15th annual recognition ceremony held during National Family Caregivers Month. For the first time, the event was held virtually to accommodate COVID restrictions.

According to the media release announcing the event, a study completed by AARP says 330,000 family caregivers in Nevada provided unpaid care to adults in their families 18 years and older in one month for a total of 280 million hours. At an economic value of $14.01 per hour, those caregivers provided service with an economic value of $3.9 million.

Recognized as “Caregiver for Youth with Special Needs” were Angie and Veronica Thomson-Crew. Angie grew up in Fallon and is the daughter of Scott and Pam Thomson. Angie taught school in Fallon for several years Fallon before moving to Reno.

LeAnn Stands is a nursing student in Reno who also grew up in Fallon and is the daughter of Ray and Rulan Stands. She was recognized as a “Facility Caregiver.”

Blaine Buer currently lives in Fallon and was recognized as a “Family Caregiver.” He is currently caring for his wife.

“The commitment and compassion of caregivers are often overlooked,” said Marta Malone, event chair. “It is our mission in the Nevada Caregivers Coalition to honor these silent heroes who are dedicating their lives to help others in a very important, personal way.”

The Nevada Caregivers Coalition is a group of organizations, agencies, businesses, and individuals working in the field of caregiving for adults, youth, and children.
