HOUSE RESOLUTION PROCLAIMING FEBRUARY 21, 2025, TO BE "NATIONAL CAREGIVERS DAY" IN THE STATE OF RHODE ISLAND

This bill is a ceremonial resolution designating February 21, 2025, as "National Caregivers Day" in Rhode Island. It symbolically recognizes caregivers - both professional (like home health aides) and family members - who provide unpaid care to adults or children, citing statistics about their significant time commitments. The resolution does not create new laws, funding, or obligations; it merely proclaims a date for acknowledgment. The House passed it on February 25, 2025, and the Secretary of State will send a certified copy to the Providers Association for Home Health & Hospice Agencies (PAHHHA).
