What is Elder Caregiving?

If you help an aging loved one with scheduling appointments, transportation, a place to live, grocery shopping, picking up medication, making meals, bathing or dressing – you are a caregiver.

With 10,000 baby boomers turning 65 each day, elder caregiving is on the rise.

Studies show that caregiving is challenging and caregivers often report a sense of isolation. If you’re one of the 42 million caregivers of elders needing guidance and support, Eldercare Coach is here to help!
