Your Resource for Caregiver Health and Wellbeing
Caring for family members can be extremely rewarding and maximizes time spent together. However, it is emotionally and physically demanding for caregivers.
Without the understanding and resources needed to maintain personal health and well-being, providing care for others can significantly impact caregivers.
As the population ages, the prevalence of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia is also on the rise.
Rising Need
- An estimated 6.9 million Americans aged 65 and older are living with Alzheimer’s dementia in 2024
- Approximately 1 in 9 people (10.9%) age 65 and older have Alzheimer’s dementia
- As a result, the number of spouses and family members providing caregiving services to their loved ones is also increasing
Emotional and Physical Impacts of Caregiving
While spouses, partners, and family caregivers often report positive feelings about caregiving, they also report experiencing higher burdens of stress, isolation, and decreased social activity. These factors can lead to adverse mental health outcomes, including depression and even cognitive decline, according to the Alzheimer’s Association.
