ARE YOU AFFECTED

  As you may recall from last month’s blog, I will sending out a series of information over the next months.  Today we begin with “Are You Affected” by aging parents or in-laws. The answer is yes, especially true for women, and what most would never guess, American business.  Here are some statics provided by America’s Council on Aging and the homecare providers’ national affiliation.

                *25% of all American homes are involved with family caregiving, averaging 20 hours/week

                *Women and adult daughters provide 72% family caregiving

                *Of those women, almost 65% of those women caregivers are employed 40/week outside the home

*The above American women family caregiver can expect 17+ years rearing children AND 18+ caring for

aging parents

                *Nearly 60% of those family caregivers will suffer depression

                *Combined, the long-distance family caregivers miss nearly 15 million workdays annually

                *80% of those family caregivers are providing unpaid assistance seven days a week

                * Long distance family caregivers face the 0ne or all of these problems;

                                -Lost Productivity

                                -Absenteeism

                                -interruptions

                                -Job Replacement
