The Caregiver.
Our research team recently returned from several weeks in the Southwestern states, interviewing caregivers, care receivers and professional nursing assistants. We’re working to uncover what it means to keep care in the home (and out of institutions) as well as answer pertinent questions about the persona of the Caregiver: who is she/he and what hurdles are in store for someone who takes on the care of a parent or child with health issues? With an ever-increasing number of aging Boomers, the future state of healthcare will rely heavily on those who are willing to make personal sacrifices in order to give care to loved-ones.
