Caregiving for Yourself and Your Whole Family
It is estimated that 75 million Americans are caring for an elderly parent, many while working full time and caring for a family. This is the definition of the Sandwich Generation – sandwiched between taking care of 2 generations.
With the combination of baby boomers, advanced technologies, and great strides in modern medicine…people are living longer. As more and more of these boomers are growing older and living longer, this does not always translate into good things.
People age 85+ are the fastest growing segment of the population. As a result, today there are more than 50 Million people who are “stuck in the middle” dealing with their kids, career, and their elder parents. In total, there are more than 75 Million people today who are caring for an elderly parent…approximately 1 out of every four Americans.
