AARP Massachusetts Honors Family Caregivers this November
November is National Family Caregivers Month, a time to recognize the dedication, commitment, and sacrifice of family caregivers across the country. Here in the Commonwealth, that recognition is especially important. Across Massachusetts, 1.4 million family caregivers help older parents, spouses, friends, neighbors, and other loved ones live independently at home and in their communities, where they want to be.
Family caregivers are the backbone of our long-term care system. They help with meals, transportation, medications, doctor’s appointments, personal care, household tasks, and so much more. Many are also balancing jobs, family responsibilities, and their own health and well-being. It can be rewarding, but it can also be stressful, expensive, and isolating
