November is National Family Caregivers Month

To help support the more than 30 million baby boomers who are caregivers to family members, AARP and Borders are hosting "Navigating Family Caregiving" events throughout the country.

"Navigating Family Caregiving" events feature strategies for caregivers, including identifying ways to reduce stress, providing a better understanding of medical treatment plans, suggesting techniques for keeping the home safe for loved ones, and assisting caregivers with managing insurance and financial matters.
