As you

probably know, you can get almost anything you want on

the Internet. Books, movies, food, jobs, homes... the

list goes on and on.

Now, there

is a service that will help many people get health care

products and services.

AmericanCareGiver.com,

a program that began a limited run in Georgia in 1999, is

now going nationwide. The web site is a fast and easy way

to find qualified, pre-screened professionals who will

come to your home, as well as a fast and easy way to

order health care products, prescriptions and services.

Potential

care givers can register on the web site to help offer a

vast array of services to people, ranging from wound

treatment to physical therapy. All care givers go through

a screening process, where their credentials, references

and accreditation are checked.

"The

dramatic growth in the elderly population, coupled with

the trend of reduced hospital stays and increased home

recuperation, have generated a rapidly growing segment of

consumers who are desperately seeking better ways to

provide care at home" says Terrie Jones, CEO of

AmericanCareGiver.com. "Now, for the first time in

the history of health care, AmericanCareGiver.com offers

a delivery system that meets this critical need."

The web

site is endorsed by the Georgia Baptist Health Care

Foundation, which was instrumental in getting health care

to rural areas of Georgia. The site offers links to

support groups, service and volunteer organizations,

health care facilities, prominent health care topics and

conditions and a medical glossary.

There is no

charge to get on the web site or to contact a care giver.

If a care giver is hired, the price is worked out between

the client and the care giver. Information and products

can be browsed at anytime at no charge.

For

information visit www.americancaregiver.com

or call 1-877-311-2242.
